Iran Election (aka Selection)
Regardless of how the election results works its self out in the near and long term one fact remains solid that event in Iran will for GOOD change how Middle East is run. The dictators both US allies or otherwise will now have to content with new set of standards on accountability and responsiveness to PEOPLE. The unelected leaders in Egypt, Israel (until Palestinians get to vote), Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Sudan, Algeria, yes even Turkey are on notice that people are not going to just lay down and let the dictators ram it to them. The civil society standards are now being outlined in streets of Tehran and other cites in the middle east. These rules are not based on Judi-Christian values of some distant land but more real and close and based on Islam and indigenous cultural and heritage of the people of middle east.
Once they arrive at the Mecca of their civil society they may still have issues with west and their designs on resources and virgin markets, so don't count on happy ever after when they get their house in order.
The two countries that are off the list namely Iraq and Afghanistan can not begin this journey of people power until their nation is free of foreign occupation forces.
