Iran is going through a period where change can occur or any change will be removed. Great leaders can bring change without having any personal ambitions to power. Take a look at great leaders like "Mahatma Gandhi", "Martin Luther King", "Golda Meir", and "Michael Gorbachov". All these leaders brought changes to the society for the good of the society and rights of the society. In Iran, reading the news papers, there is no leader who can actually represent bringing good to the society. The turmoil may yet elevate some leader who can think like all the above great people and bring about a change that is truly Iranian and Iranian people can participate whole heartedly.
Balanced commentary by Anwer Sher deserves appreciation.Pressure on Obama to side with democrates(demonsrators)speaks of American designs.Obviously America loves democracy but where it suits it.Let Iranians handle their matters themselves.
