Iran (cue singing of 'Tehran is On Fire' to tune of Sex On Fire)

All I have to say is. DANG Iranian women are hot. Almost worth moving down just to hook up with one. Iran's Presidential Election - The Big Picture - Boston.com

Anyway, to all of those that speak crap about 'hating Iran'. What can I say. At least the people there have the balls to go out onto the streets, protest and force change. Quite unlike another country where their previous president was elected over what was essentially election fraud. BBC NEWS | Middle East | Iran 'to hold election recount'
Also, to those that still bang on about build nukes, obliterate Israel bla bla bla, Learn something.

If you are referring to me, I believe it was very clear that I was criticising the Iranian government, not the population, and certainly not the 37% that voted for change (ha, where've I heard that before).

And I hope you are just joking when you're comparing the situation in Iran with really anything in Western society. The comparison is totally out of proportions.

And about the fraud thing. Yes, George W. Bush (who you're referring to, I assume) has made a mess of the past 8 years, but that is exactly why people are still talking about election fraud. Granted, Bush wasn't the better president, but if the election wás fair (though I'm not one to confirm if it was or not), people should accept that the majority chose for him. That reminds me of the elections in Belgium last week. The extreme right party has (finally) lost some seats in the parliament this election, but are still almost the 2nd greatest party in Flanders. Such a shame.

I think it is a good thing that the media are giving the situation in Iran so much attention. In some way, the protestors are being pictured as the good guys, which is extremely relative and only applicable to that particular situation. But I believe if Iran wants to evolve, there has to be a first step.

Whether Mousavi is the way to go for a nation in general is out of the question. We're talking about a country that is drained with aggressive conservatism. And in my opinion any change is good really.

P.S. I think it is repulsive how the majority of journalists is being prohibited from the country, and the ones that are still there are wrongfully held in jail.
