It Couldn't Happen To A Nicer Bunch Of Murderous Morons

March 21,
2008:  The recent national elections were
largely ignored by most Iranians. The Islamic conservative dictatorship did not
allow most reformist candidates to even run. The clerics know that they only
have the support of about a third of the population, and have no realistic long
range plan to maintain their power. What the clerics are doing is trying to
apply more pressure, largely via the lifestyle police, to stamp out "un-Islamic"
dress and behavior.
The Islamic
conservatives have a problem in that their own children, and often some of
their own number, who are partaking in this forbidden foreign culture. It is
common for Islamic conservative politicians and officials being forced to rescue
their wayward kids from the lifestyle police. This attempt to change the
attitudes of young Iranians is not working, but the Islamic conservatives have
no Plan B.
