[Peace-discuss] Fraudulent votes

[C. G. Estabrook]

True enough, but for the USG & its subservient media to view with shock and 
horror the (entirely possible) manipulation of the Iranian election should be 
interpreted in terms of the consistent USG policy to dominate the region.

The Obama admin is busy playing stick-&-carrot with Iran, & if they can 
encourage disarray w/in the Iranian govt., all the better from the US POV.

The USG is in fact probably more interested in what's going on in Yekaterinburg 
(from where Ahmadi-Nejad actually had something interesting to say, tho' you'd 
hardly know it from the US media).  --CGE
