Iran’s election was determined by Khameni’s endorsement of Ahmadinejad; it was “divine,” rather than idiological.

Since in Iran Khameni, the supreme ruler speaks with divine authority, his endorsement of Ahmadinejad was paramount to assuring the President a win. Because a majority of Iranians are believer, only secular and some people disgruntled by their economic state were in a position to vote against Ahmadinejad; his win was thus assured, it was, as Khameni said, a divine act!

When President Obama was speaking of a robust [political] dialogue in Iran. he was totally misinformed, the dialogue, if any, was about personal economic problems, not about ideology, not in response to Obama’s Cairo speech.

The West is still to remember that an Islamic democracy is not strong enough to overcome religious beliefs, and the culture that accompanies them.
