I thought Mousavi was more a figurehead. I meet many Iranians who are very pro-Israel. Most Iranians I meet hate Arabs with a dire vegenance. I have not really run into too many Iraniians who hate Jews, most I meet hate Arabs. I do meet some, like 15% who hate JEws and arre fanatical religious muslims, but it is not the majority. I know there is lot of Irainans who do hate Jews, but I have to say I meet more Spanaiards and Russians who hate Jews than Persians. I think in the past JEws and Persians had a good relationship, stemming from King Koresh.
Well , I know MOusavi is a pig. I highly doubt this rally is going on in his favor. To me its mroe a front to challenge the mullahs. There is a Persian Jewish gentleman I knew who I bought some rugs from and he told me that he lived a very nice life in Iran until the Islamic revolution and that is when he fleed the country. With a non-Islamic government in power, I am not sure if Iran would engage in a head on nuclear confrontation with Israel. Most Persians are rather liberal that i meet and committing suicide for Allah is not on the agenda of most of them.
BTW.. We need to evacuate those 10,000+ Jews in Iran..
