Iran's Supreme Leader has issued a stern warning that protests against the country's disputed presidential election results must end. In his first public remarks after days of demonstrations, Ayatollah Khamenei said the outcome must be decided at the ballot box, not on the street. The ayatollah strongly denied the election result had been rigged. He said political leaders would be blamed for any violence.
Demonstrators calling for a new election earlier vowed to stage fresh protests on Saturday. Addressing thousands of people at Tehran University, the ayatollah voiced support for President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, saying his views on foreign affairs and social issues were close to his. Responding to allegations of electoral fraud, the ayatollah insisted the Islamic Republic would not cheat. He appealed to candidates who had doubts about the election result to pursue legal avenues. BBC Tehran correspondent Jon Leyne says that Ayatollah Khamenei appears to have staked everything on this election result and Mr Ahmadinejad. It all points to heavy crackdowns if the protest continue, our correspondent says. The Guardian Council - Iran's main electoral authority - has invited Mr Ahmadinejad's main election rival Mir Hossein Mousavi and two other defeated candidates to discuss their objections tomorrow.
Congratulations President Obama for the lack of support to the voters in Iran. I am sure that they appreciate the words of wisdom you had for them during their hour of need to be empowered. Maybe we should open lines of communication up with the Tyrant that has regained control...if you thought he was empowered before wait until now!! He has stolen the Election and gotten the massive words in bald above from the supreme leader...the ayatollah voiced support for President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, saying his views on foreign affairs and social issues were close to his! WOW...NUKES NOW! Israel look out!!! President Obama...any words of wisdom for Israel now...History would show that things will not change unless people change...you can't do the same thing and think you will get a different result!
If you had supported, verbally, the people wanting in Iran...maybe the future generations of Iranian people could look upon us with a gleam of hope! Instead they will now know we are a weaken nation! Thanks Mr. President...
I hope the thing or item that stopped you from making the statements needed to the Iranian voters that wanted a different result was Patriotic...if so Sir...You have my deepest apology! Then I would say you are a PATRIOT!
If you did nothing just because you didn't want to be in the business of the Iranians...I hope we survive your leadership Sir!!!
