Inside Iran Part Two

Telegraph: Reports on the warning by the the Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to the protest leaders in Iran, the Supreme Leader has warned the reform leaders to back off their support of the protesters. As noted in a recent New York Times article the opposition in Iran has mutated, now its more that a protest against the fraudulent election its about the right of the regime to suppress its own people. This is the time for the protest movement to lead a revolution, otherwise the regime in Tehran will use the tough sanctions imposed by the UN to use even more heavy handed tactics, they will also try to get the to the bomb before there is an internal revolution in Iran. What the Obama Administration failed to see through out the year is the simple fact that if the regime and the system in Iran is to survive it needs the USA as an enemy, looked at the fate of the USSR once the Cold War was over, it melted away faster than some snowmen.
