I am suspicious about the 'colour-coded revolution - Green this time. Was it assisted by some US agencies with a vested interest in having Ahmadinejad as a figurehead? Or perhaps by some other close and special firends of the US? The plan could havebeen as Hinkus said, to raise the expectations of a win by the Mousavi side and claim fraud if it fails to come to pass. If the Ayatollahs suspected US or other interference, that might explain the dramatic no-compromise outcome.

He can speak to multiple audiences – Arabs, Jews, Muslims, Christians, as well as a staggering range of Americans – and somehow just about everyone comes away hearing something they like, feeling he’s somehow on their side.
