   TEHRAN, 4 Feb. (IPS) A visibly worried Islamic Republic reacted angrily on Thursday at the US President's open support for the Iranian people's struggle for democracy and freedom. 
    
   
   "To the Iranian people, I say tonight: As you stand for your own liberty, America stands with you", President George W. Bush said in his State of the Union Address Wednesday night, naming also the Islamic Republic as the worlds major sponsor of international terrorism. 
    
   
Mr. Bush's proposed referendum on the future of the Iranian regime has received strong support from the Iranians. 
    
   
Mr. Bushs backing for the Iranian people comes as a proposed project to organise referendum on the future of the Iranian regime. It has has received strong support from the Iranians, both inside and outside as well as from large segments among republicans and monarchists. 
    
   
At the same time, green lights have been open to Iranian dissidents in the United States as well as in Europe. 
    
   
According to well-informed French sources, some moderate neo-conservatives are sending discreetly signals to some of the ruling Iranian ayatollahs, including Mr. Ali Khamenehi or President Mohammad Khatami, offering them to leave the place for a safe heaven of their preference, or face "peoples vengeance". 
    
   
According to this source, Mr. Reza Pahlavi, the 45 years-old son of the late Mohammad Reza Pahlavi who was toppled by the Islamic revolution of 1979 is being "worked out" as a possible leader for coalition of Iranian forces, considered as "much more credible than the Iraqi dissidents under Saddam Hussein" to replace the present Islamic system with a transitory government.

    Bet there was a loud sound in Iran when Bush made that statement-The sound of sphincters slamming shut and going to Pucker Factor 10.

    Unless you prefer the turban to remain firmly on their head as it drops into the waiting basket. While the crowd erupts to cheers. Monsieur Guillotine is always hungry.
