Khamenei tells Mousavi to toe the line over election or be cast out
Is the unrest in Iran right now really going to be quelled because Mousavi falls in line? Seems like a lot of Iranians are objecting to the ayatollahs, not the fact that Mousavi was robbed.

The mullahs and the Revolutionary Guard run Iran for their own profit. They don't want to give up the sweet deal they have. But the people are getting fed up over being poor so that the ruling elite can stay rich, and it's past the boiling point -- something for us to study, with the way DC has been pissing away our wealth and future.
