Revolution within countries never work out because new egos and self interests get simply get in the way of people's rights, as happened in '79. Gradual transformation would be preferred. The viciousness of the leadership will dictate whether or not a full blown revolution is in the making today in Iran. http://pacificgatepost.blogspot.com/2009/06/new-dawn-for-iran.html It is hoped that this is not so much a “revolution” as it is a beginning of serious change.

It is ONLY the Iranians who can demand change and have to gain their freedom. The Iraqis did not gain freedom and democracy by the U.S.removing Saddom Hussein nor did the people in Afghanistan. History showes us that western interference has always been to protect their own interest and no one elses. we still want the U.S. and the west in general to stay out, what gave you the idea that the Iranians want Obama or for that matter any one else to do any thing?
