Why the Iranian Government Exists

Because the Mullahs don't want to be bothered with delivering the mail.

Dear Tabby,

The profoundness of your statement totally escaped me.
Am I the only dummy here?
They are screwed with internet anyways.

For pretty much the same reason the German Government existed when Hitler took power. Got news for you guys...Homos went to the camps along with the Jews...

The Mullahs aren't concerned with the day to day mundane functions of government. Somebody has to deliver the mail and pick up the refuse.They set POLICY. Therefore they wield the real power.

Here is what the more-liberal Rafsanjani had to say about nuclear weapons during the Al-Quds Day sermon on December 14, 2001 at Tehran University:

Rafsanjani said that Muslims must surround colonialism and force them [the colonialists] to see whether Israel is beneficial to them or not. If one day, he said, the world of Islam comes to possess the weapons currently in Israel's possession [meaning nuclear weapons] - on that day this method of global arrogance would come to a dead end. This, he said, is because the use of a nuclear bomb in Israel will leave nothing on the ground, whereas it will only damage the world of Islam.

Iran News (English), Kayhan (Farsi), and Al-Wifaq (Arabic), December 15, 2001


Sounds like the mullahs have told his successor to cool down the talk about nuking Israel.

Iran is ripe for a populist revolution. Either that or Iran will constantly seek its role as a global player by seizing control of the mid-east. Iraq is its biggest itch. If Iraq stabilizes Iran's religious revolutionaries are quickly screwed.
