There a...Your post is good although a bit cynical. There are a few points I would like to add though.<BR/><BR/>In the past during city council and presidenttial elections the IRI has claimed extremely high voter turn out when in reality and despite all their efforts the voter turn out was no more then 20%. From what I read and heard in the media the IRI is claiming high voter turn out but there is no definate percentage and no proof, so I have no reason to believe the voter turn out was any higher then the usual 20%. Even if the voter turn out is 1% IRI is going to claim its high and since there are no indepenent observers nobody is the wiser. <BR/>2. Second even if 100% of the people voted the election is still a sham because of the vetting of candidates, the only people that are allowed to run are VERY strong supporters of IRI.<BR/>3. I think its very easy for us to sit here and call the Iranian people lazy and what not and say they deserve what they get, when there are people in Iran who are coragous enough to burn ahmadinejads picture and literally risk death. There is so much going on in Iran and by not promoting that and focusing on the negative all the time I really don't think that you are being as effective as you would like to be. Thats just my two cents.Shiro_Khorshidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10059628667700675088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16538109.post-1166274450111159332006-12-16T08:07:00.000-05:002006-12-16T08:07:00.000-05:00Spot on.
