Iran's Desperation Makes It More Deadly -Reda Mansour

More than 20% of the nation is unemployed, the educated are leaving the country, and despite its massive oil reserves, Iran is heavily dependent on imported [processed] fuel. Ahmadinejad is selling the nuclear illusion to his citizens to distract them from his and Khomeini's monumental failure. Only a miracle could now save the failed Iranian Islamic Revolution.

We have no assurance that Ahmadinejad would not pass the bomb to one of his many proxy terrorist groups... In fact, I believe he would, for dictators never know when to stop, and in their desperation they don't hesitate to take others down with them.

This seems to have pegged him right. It will be interesting to see if Iran is really that badly off, and how it plays out. Time will tell. Oil reserves with the price these days tend to fix a lot of ills before revolution comes. But it is nice to think change---for the better, hopefully, is in the air.
