As I sit here in the relative comfort of my flat in Bahrain, I feel quite safe in my thoughts and feelings about the unrest in Tehran and the rest of Iran. I give the great shout out of "Right On" to the many voters and students of that country for standing up for their beliefs. Lets be realistic. No one, I mean no one could ever truly believe that the CURRENT President, Mr Ahmadinejad would step down from office. Face the facts, He is a former General in the Iran Revolutionary Guards who sustains a great ego by remaining in his current position. He had no intention of stepping down from office. While the uneducated may buy into his ranting and raving the educated peoples of this country know that if they are to return to the great days of Persia, then the Hard Liners and the current regime must be removed from their office of power. It is the above that keep the country of Iran well isolated from the current state of affairs in our world. For Iran to return to greatness it must be receptive to change. The current regime will not allow that to happen. This is not about religion or West versus the Muslim Nation. This is about Global Survival to the core. For every Protest or bombing in Iran, the current regime has blamed the west. Why is that so? They do this to try and turn the peoples attention away from the election and unrest and focus their hatred on "The Great Satin". How absurd! Once again...for an uneducated person might buy into this rationale but to the vast educated peoples of this country....they dont buy it. They know that the current regime is trying to stave off unrest and political turmoil. These same people also know that Ahmadinejad is a pawn in the process. It is he that controls the Army. Dont forget the threat to the citizens of this country from the Revolutionary Guard and the Ayatollah himself. It is about control and nothing else.
A protester asked "where is all the help?" I answer, it is your fellow countryman, your neighbor and your friend. That is your help. As recent events in other countries attest, the citizens of Iran must settle this on their terms. No outsider can come in attempt to change your system. So, you can protest and make your complaints known to the council and Pray that your Nation will step forward into the 21st century and mend the great divide that has been created. Rock On!!!
