	© the eyeranian: On Ebrahim Nabavi
		Nabavi's original article was about the upcoming parliamentary elections in Iran (along with a historical view of reformist print media over the past decade) and his opinion that participation is necessary for all those who oppose the current structure.
		I responded to his article with a short note and then he answered me (as well as a couple of other readers) in his next article, and basically accepted that he was wrong in stereotyping and bunching of all Iranians in exile together.
		Nabavi might be a ggod satirist;but he is not a political leader or analyst.However,he allows himself to advise Iranians to choose between "bad and worse";probably because he has some unspoken committments.His star rose with the so called reformists;and he got lots of support by them;so he should pay them back!

	Iranians Unite Against Ruling Mullahs
		Many of the reformist intellectuals who once vehemently supported President Khatami and his effort to change the republic from within now have also come to see a referendum on the future of the country as the only viable option.
		The reformist movement at this point should concentrate on forcing the hardliners to accept a national referendum on the future of the country'.
		What Nabavi means by 'forcing the hardliners' is putting them in a situation so they can see that a quiet departure is their only route to self-preservation and the most generous deal they can expect from the nation.
