Iran is morphing into a military dictatorship, US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton said in a Thursday interview with BBC Persian.
“It’s been a little confusing because we’re not quite sure who makes decisions anymore inside of Iran,” Clinton said.
“There is a lot of evidence,” to support the allegations, Clinton said, citing: The confession of Manssor Arbabsiar, the 56-year-old Iranian American held in custody for the plot, information from the supposed Mexican gang member that the Arbabsiar tried to hire to carry out the assassination, phone records between the two and overseas money wires traceable to the Quds Force in Iran.
The Quds Force is a shadowy subset of the powerful Revolutionary Guard in Iran charged with “exporting” the Islamic revolution beyond Iran’s borders.
Addressing the bizarre nature of “what seems like the most absurd” plot, Clinton pointed to “a pattern of increasingly reckless behavior by the Quds Force over the past years,” including the use of proxy terrorist groups like Hezbollah.
Clinton also said there was “reason to believe” that the Quds Force was involved in the assassination of Saudi security official Hassan al-Qahtani in Karachi, Pakistan on May 16.
While the problems with Iran are immense, nuclear negotiations are not off the table, Clinton said.
“We do not want a conflict with Iran but we do want to see the rulers of Iran change their outlook and their behavior.”

Hopefully, Hilliary Clinton and Barak Obama will be morphing into private citizens so we can get some real leadership in this USA. Then and only then will Iran morph into the seventh century.

Hilary Clinton is trying to provoke the spiritual leadership in Iran into clamping down on the military and political leadership. She is saying that the Iatolas have lost control. This is a smart move and could provoke substantial internal conflict inside Iran. Already we see the spritual leadership increasingly at odds with Adinajad. If the clerics do not stop the military, Iran will get flattened by the US and that is the last think that the clerics want. But right now, that is where this is headed. Israel will not strike Iran but the US WILL. If they do not, Iran is going to nuke Washington and NY and the Americans know this.

Hehe, great humor spirit from Louisiana. She is right till the end. The problem is that the little Hillary and the confused man Obama are a disastrous tandem for all the humanity. When we will succeed to stand up again and put together the broken pieces , it will be another era. Heavy mistakes take heavy prices. Luis.
