Iran - Protest in Berlin – Friday, June 24 Iranians in Berlin
protested against the election in Iran calling it undemocratic and the
choice is between two terrorists.
The protestors carried banners supporting the National Council of Resistance of Iran and President-elect, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi.
Ms. Moghadam said that the religious dictatorship in its entirety has been condemned by the Iranian people.
Another participant said, "We are holding this demonstration in
solidarity with the absolute majority of the Iranian people who have
answered the calls by the President-elect of the Iranian resistance for
a boycott." She added, "Iranian people have not been given a chance to
select their true candidates, the choice is between two terrorists". |

At one point, Mr. Rafsanjani, a former two-term president, said
he was one of the nation's first reformers, and the room burst into
laughter.
New York Times

TEHRAN - Aides to Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani initially said he would
not be making any appearances in the final days before the presidential
runoff on Friday against the conservative mayor of Tehran, Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad.But as Mr. Rafsanjani's campaign seemed to stall, he
decided to visit Tehran University on Tuesday afternoon to help drum up
votes. |

If Mr. Rafsanjani should win, he will play diplomatic games with
the U.S. and Europe. He will probably be even more skillful than Mr.
Khatami has been in stringing along the European triumvirate -- Blair,
Chirac and Schrِder.

Whoever wins an electoral runoff and becomes Iran's new president, the
news won't be good, either for Iranians or Americans and Europeans
disturbed about the regime's quest for nuclear weaponry. The country's
ruling mullahs blatantly displayed their muscle, and vote-rigging
skills, in last Friday's initial vote. That suggests that they are no
longer interested in creating even the illusion of political moderation. |

These election results as the regime's attempt to tighten its
control and to present a united, hard-line front as it sprints to
develop the bomb under cover of the talks.
A rigged election, no reformist victory.
The Wall Street Journal
The most astonishing aspect of Friday's presidential vote in Iran is
not that the elections will go into a second round but that Tehran
managed to convince so many in the West that this is a real
demonstration of democracy. |

Editorial

The Washington Times - June 16 - As Iranian voters get ready to go to
the polls tomorrow in the first round of presidential elections, the
avalanche of breathless media hype has already begun. We've been
treated to plenty of pontificating over the supposed "liberals" (the
enlightened ones who tell us what we want to hear about women's rights
and political freedom). |

EventsTehran, AFP - The United States may see oil and terrorism as
Islamic Iran's main exports, but many young people here will be quick
to disagree.
The Islamic republic, home to some of the most qualified young people
in the Middle East, has been exporting its brain-power at an alarming
rate -- with an estimated 150,000 frustrated graduates taking flight
every year. |

The Los Angeles Times
By Ali Safavi
I found "Mullah Democracy" (editorial, June 21) rather presumptuous for
suggesting that the Iranian people should vote for Hashemi Rafsanjani
in Friday's runoff election because he was the lesser of the two evils.
True, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has no virtue to speak of, having been a
Revolutionary Guard commando and directly involved in the killing of
dissidents at home and abroad. |
