Focus On Iran's Green Movement

Mohsen Makhmalbaf, The Guardian | December 16, 2009

Ahmadinejad and Khamenei made a major misjudgement in assuming they would succeed in suppressing their people, if they would beat down hard enough. ++ The green movement has only become stronger over the past six months, with protesters even stamping on photos of the supreme leader. ++ Now it is up to Obama and western governments to start paying more attention to Iran's green movement - whose leaders stated they support a controlled nuclear program - rather than to the country's leadership that is on the verge of collapse.
