The Reality Of The Iranian Regime
I've been commenting on the Iranian regime on my Facebook page.  Here, I only want to say "about time!" in response to this admission from moderate lefty Ezra Klein:

"There are a couple things to say about this, all of them depressing. First, those of us who have long argued for the fundamental rationality of the Iranian regime have seen our case fundamentally weakened. A rational regime might have stolen the election. But they would not have stolen it like this, where there is no doubt of the theft. This is like robbers leaving muddy footprints and a home address. Tehran's evident vote-tampering is tempting both domestic revolution and international isolation. That they appear to fear neither says something very unsettling about the mental state of the regime."

Some of us have been saying this for quite some time.  This regime must go!
