Re: election in iran
It certainly is interesting what is happening there.

I really have no opinion, other than violence against the protesters is wrong.

I am against protesting, as I view it as really just a lesser form of terrorism. Nor do I think that protesting is a right or anything like that. So with this in mind, the government there can just say that protesting is illegal, since it is their country, and then do whatever they want to end the protesting.

I am not really for the current regime, but even Time said that he most likely won the election, it was just that it would have been close enough to have a run-off, which then his opponents would have teamed up against him, and he may have lost.
