The sum effect of this new political reality is going to be very disappointing to those people who had hoped that the brief period of street rioting and mayhem would spell the beginning of the end of the Islamic regime. Notwithstanding the damage to prestige and legitimacy, the emergence of a leaner and meaner regime will present new strategic opportunities for Islamic Republic loyalists in the region and beyond.
>>>Asia Times should be state of the art..as well as having important perspectives other sources don't have..and they really should be written by experts...but this...I've never read anything even remotely like this...from any facet of the ideological diamond..I mean, the author didn't even mention yesterday's demos (though that could be because the article was written before they happened, although it appeared yesterday--however still, they were in the works..)...what are the ramifications of this article, if any?
Any takers?
