welcome to the middle east? .... (well iran doesnt want to be bunched in with us as middle-east)
That whole area of the world, from morrocco to iraq, once a leader is in charge, nothing short of a revolution can bring him down.... and its becoming harder and harder to cause said revolution......
Unless the 10million or so protestors around the world, fly to iran, and place a leader they think can run the country there themselves, nothing will change....
even then, that new leader will try to remain in power for as long as he can... and they are back at square one...
