Fastboy can you stop talking now? If you read a newspaper at all you'd know that the people protesting were chanting "Death to the Dictator" (clearly referring to the Supreme Leader) and openly defying the Iranian supreme leader's command not to demonstrate in the streets (and instead take to the limits of their cleric-lead system).

Why were they protesting? It was because of the secular election fraud of their president. Sans election fraud no protests...
I already said that I thought it was a good sign for budding democracy in Iran. Growth of democracy would mean a simultaneous demise of their theocracy, at least in the form that it exists today. I never said otherwise.
