Destabilizing Iran for Dummies.
Unfortunately, some of the new Administration’s tactics are those of the old. Most likely, it became apparent to US strategists that attacking Iran militarily was impossible for the foreseeable future. It would be an extremely costly operation both in terms of finances and personnel, both of which are in short supply.

Before leaving office, the Bush administration is said to have funneled hundreds of millions of dollars into a plan to infiltrate and destabilize Iran. On May 23, 2007, Brian Ross and Richard Esposito reported on ABC News: "The CIA has received secret presidential approval to mount a covert "black" operation to destabilize the Iranian government, current and former officials in the intelligence community tell...ABC News."

On May 27, 2007, the London Telegraph independently reported: "Mr. Bush has signed an official document endorsing CIA plans for propaganda and disinformation campaign intended to destabilize, and eventually topple, the theocratic rule of the mullahs." It was to be called it the “Bush Black Ops Plan.”

Therefore, it is not surprising to see “demonstrators” with the latest cellular phones using Twitter and Facebook, and Twitter doing somersaults to accommodate US intelligence services to delay maintenance and then Google doing somersaults to be certain Farsi translation is available as well, as though it’s necessary for the English fluent demonstrators on Twitter and Facebook. It is obvious that all of this sophisticated, expensive communications equipment had to have come from the CIA’s budget of hundreds of millions of dollars allocated for the destabilization plan.

British Spin Khamenei's Speech in Media Manipulation Operation

June 21, 2009 (LPAC)—The world has to be warned that the British Empire is using the international media they control, in their operation to create civil war in Iran. This was reflected in the way the media have spun the Friday speech by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei on June 19th. While the press has treated the speech as uncompromisingly hard-line support for Ahmadinejad against the opposition, a reading of an unofficial translation of the speech shows it is more conciliatory than is being portrayed in the press.

In fact, the media are consciously distorting what Khamenei said. One of the more extreme cases is Britain's Financial Times, which, under the headline "Decoding the Supreme Leader's Message," lists several isolated quotes under which they give their own interpretation. For instance, at a point in the speech that Khamenei is highly critical of those, without naming names, who leveled insults against President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad, during the campaign, his remark is "decoded" to mean unequivocal support for Ahmedinejad. But in reality, the Financial Times and other media failed to report the rest of that passage, which expresses criticism of the slandering of Ayatollah Ali Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, and then goes to great lengths to defend Rafsanjani's reputation, saying Rafsanjani is one of the foremost leaders of the Revolution, going so far as to say he "walked with the Imam [Khomeini] and he still does."

So, from the available transcript, the thrust of Khamanei's speech is, on the one hand, celebrating the fact of the election, with its high turnout, and especially the broad participation of the youth. On the other hand, he makes clear the current tensions are within the system. He said that the Western media, especially the British and Zionist media, are trying to create an image that there a struggle between those for and those against the system. He goes to some length to defend all candidates as loyalists to the Islamic Republic, pointing out that Mir Hossein Mousavi was Prime Minister in his own government, when he had been President himself.

While, indeed, he cast unqualified doubt on the idea that there was election fraud, he appealed to everyone to act within the law. Otherwise he said there will be demonstrations and counter-demonstrations in the streets which will lead to a collapse and dictatorship.

He does not attack the demonstrators; in fact, he says they were called out by the candidates whom they supported. While he denounced the violence, he said those who turned to violence were foreign agents and had nothing to do with the demonstrators.

He says that the enemies of Iran reacted to the great turnout, saw the demonstrations by the opposition and took advantage of them to created an image that there is a mass struggle against the system. He criticizes the U.S., Britain, and Europe for alleging Iran's human rights violations, saying it is hypocritical, and pointing to the war in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, etc. He even has a direct reference to George Soros, although not by name, as having financed the phony revolution in Georgia.

Re: Destabilizing Iran for Dummies.
The Iranians have good reasons to revolt. The people are fighting for their lives and their peaceful existence to continue. American threats of airstrike by their middle-eastern attack dogs (Israel) has not been taken lightly after seeing the US capability in Iraq.

"This had a huge physiological effect."

The Iranian people don't want too wake-up one morning having US bombs shitting down from the sky. This isn't about Democracy, its about not making their homes and businesses a pile of rubble. The Iranians understand how the business of oil affects the US economy and how quick the US are in protecting their interest, even at the cost of total war.
