Interesting overview. I will ask Alan Peteres to post it on http://www.antimullah.com, however your sources seem to mostly come from "purely reformist" viewpoints (and there are more of them than otherwise) but you also include total trashers (verb) like Trita Parsi who has ingratiated and wormed his way into some serious organizations and provides advice that has a splintering effect on the opposition and serves the Mullahs.

You might extrapolate some of the antimullah analyses on antimullah.com and find a tangentially different picture than your quite accurate but at times too limited viewpoint retrieved from your other sources.

Two BTWs:

1. The darling of the US intel community these days, Akbar Ganji has a questionable past Was a torturer himself and in the Revolutionary Guards. Check this out and weep at our lack of humint FACTS. We think with our eyes and not our heads and inadequate resources.

2. I'm being told that in the next couple of days Alan is putting up an article blasting Cindy Sheehan as an example of one kind of enemy we face that's almost as bad as the armed variety in other countries. It will contain photos probably too graphic to post on FR but we'll see.

Thanks for the ping and the link to you.

Thanks for your BTWs... I will dig into them both. I checked out antimullah.com and found value there. Mr. Peters has a unique perspective that encourages debate and would like to see what sort of reaction my analysis brews there. Probably the most outrageous assertion I make in this analysis is, "time is on the side of the US". This assertion is in contrast to many informed opinions of the day, possibly because the owners of said opinions are uninterested in encouraging complacent government officials. Fact is, I'm not interested in encouraging complacent officials either but I call it like I see it, even when I don't like what I see.
