A number of commentators have expressed their idealistic belief in the purity of Mousavi, Montazeri, and the westernized youth of Terhan. The CIA destabilization plan, announced two years ago (see below) has somehow not contaminated unfolding events.
The claim is made that Ahmadinejad stole the election, because the outcome was declared too soon after the polls closed for all the votes to have been counted. However, Mousavi declared his victory several hours before the polls closed. This is classic CIA destabilization designed to discredit a contrary outcome. It forces an early declaration of the vote. The longer the time interval between the preemptive declaration of victory and the release of the vote tally, the longer Mousavi has to create the impression that the authorities are using the time to fix the vote. It is amazing that people don’t see through this trick.
As for the grand ayatollah Montazeri’s charge that the election was stolen, he was the initial choice to succeed Khomeini, but lost out to the current Supreme Leader. He sees in the protests an opportunity to settle the score with Khamenei. Montazeri has the incentive to challenge the election whether or not he is being manipulated by the CIA, which has a successful history of manipulating disgruntled politicians.
There is a power struggle among the ayatollahs. Many are aligned against Ahmadinejad because he accuses them of corruption, thus playing to the Iranian countryside where Iranians believe the ayatollahs’ lifestyles indicate an excess of power and money. In my opinion, Ahmadinejad’s attack on the ayatollahs is opportunistic. However, it does make it odd for his American detractors to say he is a conservative reactionary lined up with the ayatollahs.
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
Commentators are “explaining” the Iran elections based on their own illusions, delusions, emotions, and vested interests. Whether or not the poll results predicting Ahmadinejad’s win are sound, there is, so far, no evidence beyond surmise that the election was stolen. However, there are credible reports that the CIA has been working for two years to destabilize the Iranian government.
On May 23, 2007, Brian Ross and Richard Esposito reported on ABC News: “The CIA has received secret presidential approval to mount a covert “black” operation to destabilize the Iranian government, current and former officials in the intelligence community tell ABC News.”
On May 27, 2007, the London Telegraph independently reported: “Mr. Bush has signed an official document endorsing CIA plans for a propaganda and disinformation campaign intended to destabilize, and eventually topple, the theocratic rule of the mullahs.”
A few days previously, the Telegraph reported on May 16, 2007, that Bush administration neocon warmonger John Bolton told the Telegraph that a US military attack on Iran would “be a ‘last option’ after economic sanctions and attempts to foment a popular revolution had failed.”
On June 29, 2008, Seymour Hersh reported in the New Yorker: “Late last year, Congress agreed to a request from President Bush to fund a major escalation of covert operations against Iran, according to current and former military, intelligence, and congressional sources. These operations, for which the President sought up to four hundred million dollars, were described in a Presidential Finding signed by Bush, and are designed to destabilize the country’s religious leadership.”
The protests in Tehran no doubt have many sincere participants. The protests also have the hallmarks of the CIA orchestrated protests in Georgia and Ukraine. It requires total blindness not to see this.
Daniel McAdams has made some telling points. For example, neoconservative Kenneth Timmerman wrote the day before the election that “there’s talk of a ‘green revolution’ in Tehran.” How would Timmerman know that unless it was an orchestrated plan? Why would there be a ‘green revolution’ prepared prior to the vote, especially if Mousavi and his supporters were as confident of victory as they claim? This looks like definite evidence that the US is involved in the election protests.
Timmerman goes on to write that “the National Endowment for Democracy has spent millions of dollars promoting ‘color’ revolutions . . . Some of that money appears to have made it into the hands of pro-Mousavi groups, who have ties to non-governmental organizations outside Iran that the National Endowment for Democracy funds.” Timmerman’s own neocon Foundation for Democracy is “a private, non-profit organization established in 1995 with grants from the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), to promote democracy and internationally-recognized standards of human rights in Iran.”
June 20th, 2009 at 5:58 am
Tasked by the Bush administration with sending that message from America to Tehran, and “winning hearts and minds” is author and “Swiftboat Veterans for Truth” member Jerome Corsi. On May 16, Corsi’s NGO, the Iran Freedom Foundation (IFF), inaugurated a 12-day “Iran Freedom Walk” from Philadelphia’s Liberty Bell to Washington, DC.
Los Angeles Farsi radio station KRSI noted the similarity between current US efforts and the CIA’s 1953 overthrow of Iran’s democratically elected premier Mohammed Mossadeq. When asked if he was CIA-affiliated, Corsi replied: “No, I’m not. I’ve never held a government position, never had any government position at all. I’ve been in universities. I’m an author. I’m in business. I’m not related to the CIA. It’s just not true.”
But when later asked how he became so committed to Iranian liberation, he explained, “When I was a young man I was an expert in antiterrorism and political violence. I had a top secret clearance when I was in universities and I worked to assist the State Department and the government.” Corsi’s publisher, Cumberland House, states in his biography that Corsi’s top secret clearance came from the government agency US Agency for International Development (USAID). USAID has often served as a conduit for American covert operations funding, under humanitarian auspices.

I believe Ahmadinejad won the election. I believe the CIA has been manipulating things in Iran, much as Isreal interfere’s in our internal politics.
Many of us believe Iran is a target since they haven’t knuckled under to our elite. Iran’s media from all I can tell is more truthfull than our own. You just have to sit back and wait for the real truth to filter through all the bullshit. I would recomend the same attitude to the Iranian’s. Why do clandestined groups from here think they should influence Iran, look at the mess they have made of this place. We have to rid ourselves of these destructive leeches.

A paragraph taken by an article written by Alexey Sazonov
Before any analysis begins, some facts have to be laid out. Many people see Iran as an oppressive state because that is the way (and most often the only way) it is portrayed in the Western press. However, Iranian people are some of the most educated and have high living standards. People can have their own businesses and a market economy is in effect there. Also, these protests could mean the collapse of the government of Iran and a spiral downward. Most Westerners would rejoice at the headline after reading it on their favorite news site and then forget about the whole thing. Nevertheless, on the other side of the world a whole country and a people will be plunged into poverty, uncertainty, and chaos with no one to lead them and no government that has earned their trust. That is a fact that has haunted any overthrow of recent times and such radical measures have to be avoided at all costs until all other possibilities of changing the way Iran is led are exhausted.
full story. http://www.russiatoday.ru/Abou.....raeli.html
The beliefs posted above as Iran being only an oppressive regime is the throughts given to you by all media outlets and information available. It isn’t a perfect government. However, they are an ancient culture with their own traditions and values which everyone seems to forget. This situation isn’t good, but very bad. The only groups licking their chops are those who see Iran as an obsticle in their Middle East Policies.

I would expect the PEOPLE Of the US doing that themselves!!!!

Speaking of shit stirrers, guys like this are all over the Net and start posting junk comments just to get under people’s skin. Just want to keep everyone informed, just neg them or block them where ever you see them, as an example of these subversive people planted to spread propaganda these pukes online with their junk comments are an example of what this article is talking about. The CIA and Pentagon recruit people to go online and pose as a commenter, tweet user, or forum participant or chat member – the military’s use of Internet based propaganda is in heavy use they had a report on that on CNN, patting backs on former CNN employees in the military running PR for civilian killings via Predator drones in Afghanistan. You can search for “Pentagon recruits blogger” I did that few years back and a blogger posted emails he got from the Pentagon offering him money to plant stories on his blog. So you should now that it’s not just in Iran, these people are here in the US too doing the same thing -pass this on and let people know to just block and ignore all the people with the “official line” there’s no debate, another strategy they use is to get people into endless debates over nothing to just waste their time and present people who don’t get into it with them as “closed minded bigots” – they have every angle covered the only remedies are to forcefully deal with them as long as these snakes are allowed to slither along among us they’ll do as they like. It’s all about a wealthy elites having their agenda worked at every one else’s expense, that’s the common thread in all these people’s ideas. And the US has the same human rights record Iran has by the way, they lock people up for no reason as well, but this Palestine occupation supporter thinks locking up Arabs is OK i they oppose his buddies stealing their land.

This is nothing but a big ploy to induce the American people into believing that the Iranian people are crying out for democracy and freedom. If this sounds familiar, think back to Iraq. All the neo-cons are spouting the same old song. America now has sympathy for the powerless in Iran. Wow, just last year we were told how evil Iran is and were ready to attack at a moments notice. Anybody with a half of brain can tell who is behind this push {by deceit, we shall wage war}. For those of you still living in the stone age, Iran is a fully functional, modern country. These people are not stupid by any means. History proves this fact. As the writer above states, our own country has gone through the same disenchantment with election results, and dont think for one minute that our military wont beat down or open fire on its citizens for not following their instructions.
think back to the protests we had during the lead up to the Iraq invasion.

Re: “Timmerman wrote the day before the election that “there’s talk of a ‘green revolution’ in Tehran.” How would Timmerman know that unless it was an orchestrated plan?”
Because the election campaign itself and Mousavi’s win was called the “green revolution”.
This “green revolution” would have been just a change of president if they had announced Mousavi the winner and stayed with it, making it a “revolution” in name only, but when the election result suddenly changed it might have become a real revolution.

I have been writing on my blog all week that this revolt stank of manipulation. My main focus has been on the media all jumping on the bandwagon of supporting these protesters and bringing on commentators who are all rooting for regime change in Iran with barely concealed glee. It is an effort on the part of international capital to insure control of one of the last remaining outposts of resistance.

Take another look. The media has indeed NOT jumped on board to support the protestors. I don’t know what your talking about!

The military industrial complex needs it’s enemies, and they’ll be sad to see this one go.

I hope you’ll take time to check out this revelation which spawned from
the recent press given to Zeitgeist/Zeitgeist Addendum…
I’m gonna point out a few things assuming you’ll take immediate interest and run with it from that point on your own as this rabbit hole seems to be an endless pit.
While downloading some of that Zeitgeist press from youtube I inadvertantly downloaded and started watching a video titled “NWO psyops exposed:zeitgeist addendum”. In it there is much reference
to the King James Bible, as though it were the literal words of God/Jesus. The redundency sparked the thought,”Who’s to say the KJ bible is not of the NWO crowds ancestry”? It certainly seems to promote
the/a centalization of power,via the house of the lord.(on earth as it is in heaven-we must ask who for forgiveness of our sins…?)
My atheistic belief that man created god in his own image,meaning we are all of ‘gods’,decentralizes that ‘higher power’! The question,
“Who was this King James of the Bible anyway”?,led me to do some basic research which uncovered that King James was;
King James the VI of scottland,then ‘33′ years later he also became
King James the I of England.It was said KJ fulfilled a messianic prophecy.At a quick glimpse,thought it referred to ‘masonic’ as in the #33 years…realizing my error,what the hell,did an etymology and found anomolies there.The true etymology for masonry a mystery and subject of debate.Masorete:An early Jewish scholar,one of the scholars who produced the traditional text of the hebrew bible.Masoretic text:traditional hebrew bible text,revised and annotated by ‘Jewish’ scholars.various definitions of Messianic;christian relating to the Messiah: belonging or relating to the Messiah.
judaism of Judaic golden age: relating to, belonging to, or constituting a Judaic golden age of peace, truth, and happiness.
of a liberator: relating or belonging to an inspirational leader, especially one claiming to be or regarded as a savior or liberator.
involving great enthusiasm: done with or showing great enthusiasm or devotion,
preaching with messianic fervor.
