What rights? Rights are something you "may have" have in a Democracy. Do not confuse a Theocracy with Democracy. Don't confuse Communism with Democracy, and never confuse a Democracy with Democracy. Those in power want to remain in power, some will do all that their citizenry allow them to do to maintain that power.

Khatami said those who disturbed the peace and destroyed public property were "at war with God," and said they should be "dealt with without mercy."

This is just a red flag waving to note a full dictatorship. Also have-a-day, your statement is so true :P

I would say that Ayatollah Ahmed Khatami is working himself closer and closer to martyrdom. If he keeps on torking off people and surpressing them, someone in the opposition is going to pop this beady-eyed little islamic facist before this is all over.

The it will be time for the US to dance in the streets.

GOD is to be found by those that really want to. The Iranian Clerics don't want to find GOD because they would have to reverse their former rhetoric if they truly found him, (that means they wont look)...

"The cleric alleged that some involved in the unrest had used firearms."

"Anyone who takes up arms to fight with the people, they are worthy of execution," he said. "We ask that the judiciary confront the leaders of the protests, leaders of the violations, and those who are supported by the United States and Israel strongly, and without mercy to provide a lesson for all."



What he didn't say was that the killings were done by the 'Basij' and they are up to their eyeballs in the unrest and the cause of most of it!!!! They are the ones 'with' the guns, Iran ships guns to any terrorist group that can pay the price, but they don't lett their own people buy them. So I feel that the Clerics are the ones fighting against GOD. The head man said so himself... (Khatami said those who disturbed the peace and destroyed public property were "at war with God," and said they should be "dealt with without mercy.") and the Basij are the ones doing the killing, as I said before.,

Ayatollah Ahmed Khatami speaks for God? ..
He would have normal human beings believe that
he is the mouth of God. What Hubris, what ego, what a Liar
This only proves that God is no where to be found, in the
modern world, where speaking with and for God, is labeled
a mental condition.
Where is the justice that a pathological pervert has governmental
power!

This is Iran's business and there is little legally any other country can do except condemn violent action on all sides.

Those that use this as an opportunity to bash Obama are simply looking for a reason to spout their displeasure with the President and need no prompting nor rationale to condone it. I suppose it's their right, regardless of how extremely irrelevant it is to this situation. Rant on oblivious ranters.

The only observation I'd make is that many Iranians feel as if they've been cheated in the election and are taking to the streets to express that feeling.

America was cheated in 2000 by the Bush/Cheney crime syndicate(hanging chads, hardy har har) and only a few took to the streets. They lied us into a war and only a few took to the streets. They've slaughtered almost a million humans and few have taken to the streets.

Now Obama is continuing the lies and policies of the criminals who were in office before him and few are taking to the streets.

Welcome to America, home of the civilized sheeple.
