Tolerating the intolerant

The overwhelming energy of the waves of protesters in Iran, over so many days, can only come from a long-standing deep-rooted sense of frustration and anger of an oppressed people. This goes beyond asking for a recount, beyond demanding a re-election, beyond supporting the opposition candidates. This is a sign that the Iranian people have had enough. 

Enough of several decades of the fascism of religion-based intolerance. This is a revolution against a revolution, not a revolution within a revolution. And that, I think, is what the guys at the top of this unholy mess are really, really afraid of. In my humble opinion.
