Any change in Iran's leadership can only bring a positive change , or at least I am hoping so.
The mullahs ARE the leadership. Not the president.
Just like in America. The banksters are the leadership, the president is a puppet.

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his main moderate challenger both claimed to be leading in a hotly-contested election in Iran on Friday.
Millions of Iranians streamed to polling stations, causing voting to be extended by four hours to 10 p.m. (1:30 p.m. EDT) to allow more people to cast ballots, the Interior Ministry said.
Those still queuing when the polling stations closed were allowed to stay to vote.

it seems that Iran is the only other democracy in the Middle East.
There were conflicting reports on whether Ahmadinejad's challenger, Mir Hossein Moussavi, had been placed under house arrest.
Some reports indicated that he had been detained. Others said he was at home, conducting meetings but was free to come and go. Guards were stationed outside his house, but it was not immediately clear whether they worked for him or the government.
Israel doesn't count because is runs a similar set up to apartheid South Africa.
