“Analysis: Bracing for the purge in an Iran reeling from internal disunity”
By SABINA AMIDI, SPECIAL TO THE JERUSALEM POST
TEHERAN

SNIPPET: “Four days after the disputed presidential elections, prominent supporters of “defeated” candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi are bracing for a harsher backlash once the international media spotlight has moved on.”

SNIPPET: “Numerous pro-reform government officials have already been arrested, reportedly including the brother of former president Mohammad Khatami, and there is still confusion surrounding the whereabouts of Mousavi himself.

Speaking of Khatami, who dropped out of this year’s presidential race to support his friend Mousavi, the “landslide” margin of incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s purported victory is similar to that of Khatami’s two sweeping electoral successes - in 1997 and 2001.”
