The problem, in my view, is that there are three groups, all of whom are convinced that they are absolutely right and hold a majority: those who support Mousavi and think the election has been stolen from them, those who support Ahmadinejad and think that foreign elements are trying to steal the election from them, and those who hate the Islamic Republic and want it gone.
There's an easy solution, free elections.

free elections, but who's got the cojones to run on an anti-theocratic platform, when the local version of god's mercy might entail wires and genitalia?
