Very interesting!

I think the best hope in all of this Iranian mess is the reform movement within the country. It may take time, but should the movement continue and gain strength, it could change the course that country takes with its relations to the rest of the world. Alas, however, with that country's nut-job president and clerical leadership, any efforts for reform may come too late.

Yep
How ironic is it that a revolutionary is the supreme leader, and they want to have another revolution partly because of him.

That's the sad part about it. The majority of the people want freedom from ideological oppression, and they would be the ones who suffer. They are being held hostage by the few radicals.
