In a fake show, to appease the people of Iran and show that Iranian officials were seriously addressing the claims of voting fraud, a recount of a randomly selected ten percent of the vote was conducted, however after the recount President Ahmadinejad is still the winner according to the results released on Monday. A further conclusion was that there were few or no errors found in the original count of the votes.

While the government had repeatedly stated that there would be no new election, something that opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi had requested, the outcome of the recount could have been predicted based on the small percentage of votes that were recounted. With ten percent of nearly 40 million ballots cast, even if every one of the votes that were recounted were tallied wrong the recount would have still shown Ahmadinejad as the winner, which strongly indicates this recount was just for show.

Almost in the same breath, President Ahmadinejad ordered an investigation into the death of a woman protester, Neda, whose death was witnessed around the world as she lay bleeding in the streets. Ahmadinejad, knowing he could not blame the unarmed protesters for this act of murder, has instead shifted the blame of the death of this young woman to what he calls “unknown agents” that were possible “enemies of the nations.”

With this statement it appears Ahmadinejad hopes to shift the world view of its murdering government from victimizer to victimized, by outside entities. How then does he rationalize the other deaths and injuries, as well as the beatings recorded by protesters and viewed throughout the word?

All these lies and games in an attempt to show they are fair and reasonable people when the truth is obviously clear as they verbally attack President Obama for meddling in the affairs of their country simply because Obama spoke out against the reprehensible violence that was taking place against unarmed protesters.

At the present time nine British embassy employees are being held on suspicion of aiding protesters and encouraging dissention amongst Iran’s people, their fate to be determined by the courts of Iran.

With Iran’s credibility shattered as a result of this voting fiasco, how will America diplomatically deal with such a ruthless nation? How can the government of Iran expect to be believed in any negotiations with the United States on any level? Just how gullible does Ayatollah Khamenei and his puppet President Ahmadinejad think the American’s are?

Ayatollah Khamenei’s word is the final word in Iran and it is obvious that he uses President Ahmadinejad as his mouth piece, thereby eliminating his need to verbalize the lies that are spread regarding the incidents that have transpired in that country since the election. This, consequently, leaving his role as head cleric/spiritual advisor presumably in tact and untarnished.

However the truth is that even though he is not making the statements, his sin is still great in condoning the words and the actions. It is hard for me to understand his logic with the world knowledge that he, Ayatolloh Khamenei, is the ultimate voice of Iran and holds the title of “Spiritual Advisor with heavenly connections”.

It sickens me to witness the hypocrisy that is being displayed by this supposedly religious leader. What god does he really worship? It appears he worships the god of the under world as opposed to the God in heaven – the world does not have to accept the lies he feeds his people.

The Ayatollah has no power over world powers but he does not seem to understand this concept because he has experienced extreme and deceitful control, for so long, over the people in Iran and he shows that he feels this power extends outward to the world; that he can hide behind obvious lies and intense efforts to manipulate and the world will believe whatever he speaks as truth.

At this point, so wrapped up in his own narcissistic belief that he is powerful, he does not even recognize that he has lost credibility amongst his own people. He does not realize that while he has violently stopped the protests he has only increased the anger and as has been witnessed over the past few weeks, anger eventually boils over.

You can not keep a people down once they realize a truth and the actions perpetrated during this election process is a truth that has been brought to light in the hearts and minds of many Iranian citizens. Don’t give up, don’t give in, let not your voices be silenced for in that silence is bondage and bondage is not an option when freedom is what you want.

And that’s the way I see it!!!

Funeral services will be held today, Tuesday, June 30, 2009, for Farrah Fawcett. The beautiful actress died at the age of 62 after suffering severely from anal cancer. Her suffering lasted for two years as she courageously battled the disease that eventually spread throughout her body.

MSNBC did a documentary recording her battle with this disease and those who stuck by her during this hard fought battle. Ryan O’Neal, who truly loved Farrah was by her side during her journey to death and I admire his dedication to Farrah. True love seems so rare in today’s world but it was obvious that Ryan loved Farrah and had loved her for years.

I believe Ryan O’Neal was the true love of Farrah’s life and even though their relationship was on again, off again I know he truly loved Farrah as I watched him in the documentary giving her strength and tears as he watched her condition deteriorate and weaken her body. I’m sure the world does not seem the same for him since Farrah died. I am so glad for Farrah Fawcett, that she had true love in this life and a true friend, as well in Alana Stewart who remained by her side during this devastating illness.

I grew up watching Farrah Fawcett on “Charlie’s Angels” She was truly one of the beautiful people in life with her stylish hair, beautiful, ready smile and that Texas accent that she spoke with in Charlie’s Angels always acting like a little country bumpkin with serious consequences when you fell for the act.

Years later, her role in “The Burning Bed” was outstanding and I related to that story as though it were a page out of my life for I had considered that very thing, prior to that movie, at one point in my life and for the same reasons. I am glad that domestic violence is beginning to be viewed on the criminal level that it should have been viewed long ago.

I remember when she married Lee Majors, another actor I loved, back in the day, as he played the illegitimate son of Barbara Stanwyck in “The Big Valley” and Steve Austin in “The Six Million Dollar Man”. When they wed, I thought they were the perfect couple in terms of they were two outwardly beautiful people who looked good together. That turned out to be a short lived union however lasting from 1973 to 1979. Majors had nice words for her upon her passing, calling her an “angel on earth and now an angel forever”

R.I.P. Farrah Fawcett, you will be remembered!!!! Stay Strong Ryan and may you find peace in the face of sadness.

And that’s the way I see it!!!!
