I don’t think things are going to go well at all tomorrow.

TEHRAN, June 19 (Reuters) – Defeated Iranian presidential election candidate Mirhossein Mousavi is not calling on his supporters to stage new street protests on Saturday, an ally told Reuters on Friday.

The ally, who declined to be named, spoke after Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned the leaders of the mass street protests seen in Iran following a June 12 disputed presidential election that they would be responsible for any bloodshed.

The mullahs win, again.

  1. Since Moussavi is to Ahmanidejad as Abbas is to Arafat, I think that he is not the one to make such statements. He is probably as upset at being used as the icon of those who truly want freedom in Iran as the Mullahs. Daniel Pipes has an interesting comment at http://www.danielpipes.org/blog/2009/06/ahmadinejad-or-mousavi.html
