What I don't see in Teheran....maybe next week on the 7 day memorial or on day 40

I don't see the middle class out there.

If it's going to be the Robespierre and Danton solution, which is the only one which will obviate the nuclear question, then we need to see men and women 35-60 out there.

Whether thru fear or caution, or lack of support for this spontaneous action, there are none of the critical core I have seen in any youtube or broadcast of the age group whose participation would break the back of the mullahs.

Only growing nationwide strikes provoking ever more extreme backlashes might do this.

And statements of SUPPORT FOR ALL MENS FREEDOMS by the man at the helm of the nation which had a revolution over precisely that issue.

SHAME to him, his legacy and, for him, worst of all, HIS IMAGE

It is Obama!

The median age of Iranian citizens listed in Wikipedia is 26.4. Could you be superimposing our life epectancies when attempting to define an Iranian middle class?

26.4 kids

Kids are not shopkeepers, middle managers and business people

26 is going to be a lot of students, AND graduates expecting a better life, a better SECULAR life in THIS world.

BUt that is not the same thing as a bunch of people who have worked most of their adult life in a system and then have them so fed up they are ready to burn it to the ground, and risk their and their families lives into the bargain.
