Thread Name: BS: Election in Iran
Subject: RE: BS: Election in Iran
Richard, I do not like the Taliban or the Revolutionary Guards any more than you do. However, I am sure that nothing will derail the development of liberal trends in Iran more swiftly than interference from the West. There I agree with Ron Davies. The mindset of the current rulers of Iran is that they have a God given right to be there, which has been resoundingly endorsed by a popular vote. If we have learned nothing else from the Taliban, we should at least know by now that everyone is safer if they live within their own law, rather than as outlaws from ours.
