12.02 pm. Mousavi tells he's bathed [ritually] for martyrdom
(Excerpt) Read more at andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com ...
He was Khomeini’s PM, the guy who recruited Khan for Iran’s nuke program, and one of the founders of Hezbollah.

That’s gonna go viral.
Warning: very, very graphic. Probably the most graphic (and certainly one of the saddest) deaths I’ve seen.
Yet Obama does not support these freedom fighters, instead he tells dumb jokes, laughs while the state run media coos like a baby over his ability to kill a fly.
Thanks to a failed Obama leadership and corrupt politicians, we may see what we are watching, far worse..... on our own streets before all is done.
Are you telling me that the Iranian military is supporting the people? Who is doing the shooting? Hezbollah-are they dressed differently than the Iranian army? Do the Iranian people know the difference upon seeing them? And the basij? The ones who are reportedly taking over the hospitals. Who are they? Are they a special army of the Mullah’s? Do the folks over there know the difference?
That could be the thing that brings down the mullahs.
The regime change horse is out of the stable and there is no turning back.
Just say'n...

Wonder what the chances this is a fight between those who want to nuke Isreal and those who want to talk about nuking Isreal. Which is which?
Don’t forget about the mullahs.
Mousavi was the Prime Minister of Iran in the 1980s. He was a hardliner then and he's a hardliner now. He's just going the Arafat "moderate" route, that's all.
Doesn’t matter, once the ball really gets rolling Mousavi may not end up in office anyway...
The first video was pulled. I don’t think this one will last long either.
I think that Mousavi is a catalyst for revolution, not the leader of the revolution. It could be anyone in his place. The people are oppressed and see a glimmer of freedom. The more they get oppressed the more they will dig there heals in.
Not unlike Iraq, there's sectarian, ethnic and even some tribal militia's or militia's that are loyal to a particular Mullah in Iran. I would guess the militia's that are doing the shooting belong to Mullah's that are pro-government.
Kind of hard to get excited about a guy with a resume like that.
You know what? I was thinking the same thing about Mousavi... didn't he approve of the atomic bomb program? I have to wonder if this is just a power grab with the same ol' boss...
If the mullahs don’t want to follow the Ayatollah Khomeini’s path into exile in Europe, they’d better make sure nothing happens to Ahmadinejad while he’s in Russia.
BTW...does anybody notice that Ahmadinejad is out of sight?
It's pretty obvious what it is going to take: The Iranian Army -- or at least key units -- are going to have to revolt & go over to the side of the demonstrators. They are the only armed counterweight to the Basij (Revolutionary Guards) and flying columns of Arab thugs. Question is, will they?
