Let's bring everyone here into a
lesson on Iran leadership:
The political system of the
Islamic Republic
comprises several intricately
connected governing bodies.
1) The Supreme Leader of
Iran is responsible for delineation and supervision of the
general policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
The Supreme Leader is
Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces,
controls the military intelligence and security operations; and
has sole power to declare war or peace.
Who supervise the Supreme
Leader?
1) The Assembly of Experts elects
and dismisses the Supreme Leader on the basis of qualifications and
popular esteem. The Assembly of Experts is responsible for
supervising the Supreme Leader in the performance of legal
duties.
Now onto the President of
Iran...
1) After the Supreme Leader, the
Constitution defines the President of
Iran as
the highest state authority.
2) The President
is elected for a term of four years and can only be re-elected for
one term. Presidential candidates must be approved by the
Council of
Guardians prior to running
in order to ensure their allegiance to the ideals of the Islamic
revolution.
3) The President is responsible
for the implementation of the Constitution and for the exercise of
executive powers, except for matters directly related to
the Supreme Leader, who has the final say in all
matters.
4) Unlike many other states,
the executive branch in Iran does not control the armed
forces.
Iran's current president,
Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad. It seems
like xtreyier is pissed off with Ahmadinejad but
he has limited knowledge on how the political system of
Iran works.
Although In 2001, Khamenei (current supreme leader)
famously remarked that "this cancerous tumor of a state
[Israel] should be removed from the region," in 2005, Khamenei responded to President
Ahmadinejad's alleged remark that Israel should be "wiped off the
map" by saying that "the Islamic Republic has never threatened and
will never threaten any country." Moreover Khamenei's main advisor
in foreign policy, Ali Akbar Velayati, refused to take part in a
Holocaust conference. In contrast to Ahmadinejad's remarks,
Velayati said that the Holocaust was a genocide and a historical
reality.
Iran Political Reality
-------------------------
Thanks Roy for your Iran political leadership responsibility
lesson. Only in a perfect world does perfection exists. BUT we do
not live in a perfect world. Iran may devise the perfect system,
but it is humans, flawed, that seats on those position. Even
Hitler, Mugabe, Idi Amin, Kim Ill Sung devised 'check and balances'
to placate their citizens and the world on their rule. But are such
systems infallible in reality?
The no2 man in Iran had voice destruction to a nation of humans,
DEATH to a population of est 8 million innocent lives, just because
they are of an ethnic group that is different from them. He had
voiced not once, but several times, even as recent in 2nd June 2008
in the presence of international foriegn affairs ministers in
Iran.
Yet, he had never been censured once. Why is he allowed to
behave in this manner? What happened to the leader's 'advisors'? Is
the leader deaf?
We all can only conclude that what the no2 man had done, was
done with tacit approval from the leader himself. Welcome to the
reality of Iranian politics.
As further proof of their genocidal ways, their Shahab
missiles were inscribe with "Israel must be uprooted and erased
from history”. Do you think for a moment anyone have any doubt
on the 'peacefulness' of the No.1man, the man capable to
launch a war, in Iran?
Price hike

If you had read yesterday's straits times, in the business
section on oil news, you may have missed a single line phrase
in the report on US energy watchdog's observation on the current
market. This watchdog monitors and tracks the supply of oil
and its use in the international market. It found out more oil was
being kept in storage than to refineries. Simple phrase, but deep
in meaning. Oil is being hoarded.
By the process of elimination, you will find out who stands to
gain from oil's storage and the capability of that country to do
so. The answer lies with Iran again, and its buffoon sidekick
Venuezela.
Most oil stock players do not have the license nor the
capability to take and store oil upon delivery. You will need
a huge tract of land as well as the attendent securities. US and
China, major importers, already have their own strategic
reserve stocks. Europe, while need oil, do not require huge
stocks. Asia has its own oil under the ground. So who is buying and
keeping the stocks to play the real supply market? Iran!
They are doing it in the process of 'open' secret to let US
know of their capability to blackmail the world, make billions
around the world suffer, including US citizens, so that US will
stop preventing Iran from producing nuclear weapons.
For their willingness to make us all suffer inorder to
achieve their aims, it is an inhuman and despicable act. Billions
of middle class and the poor are nothing more than pawns in their
game.
I say NO! to their atrocities against humanity. And I say
NO! to them owning nuclear weapons. No one will be safe from
them. I may starve and die from high prices, but the next
generations will face a far greater threat - death from nuclear
holocast from a mad and inhuman Iranian leadership
authorities!
War is the only solution left. War is the only answer they
respect. Then by the sword and the spillage of my blood, with
others likeminded, in a legal authorised military expedition,
must the Iranian leadership be bowed and quartered so
that billions may live in peace!
