Passive Acceptance Or A Time To Reorganize
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!!!

Your reasoning is suspect… When you say that if every one of the votes was wrong, as only 10% was counted still Amedinejad would have won… Is it not obvious that the ten percent wasn’t to cure or to change, simply to show a ten percent cross section supposedly representative of the whole vote? Oh yes, it is still a shill of a presentation. Extremely obvious of one to all. I don’t believe that anyone thought for a minute that there would be any identification of an ‘error; in the vote.
Right now I am more concerned with the fact that finally Ahmedinejad has learned to try to present himself as human and also as a victim when trying to escape guilt. Even though this too is transparent to the many. I am afraid though, if he gets to adept at it the people will begin to believe that if he has enough conscience to bother putting on the act; maybe he isn’t quite as bad after all - As until recently he didn’t even fake it.
I realize in saying this that they don’t want him as president even so, but it appears that the system is pretty well set there… Let’s hope the fact that they will have to move a mountain to get those two out of there will not deter them from succeeding indoing so.
As for Khomenei, I don’t think that he believes he has any power outside. It seems that in Iran that many things authorities have wanted to pull over on the public have been explained as religious necessities, that he has simply always succeeded in doing so. If you have always won, it is hard when you begin to lose! He knows… He is not tired of fighting it yet is all lol.
Good thought evoking article. Thanks.
What I was referring to was with the number of votes counted - if they were are mistaken he would have still won because it is said he won by 11 million or so votes - 10% of 44 million is how much??? - not enough to matter :o}
