FDI: State Department met with Mousavi representative in Dubai
Wednesday, June 10th, 2009Very interesting.
When there is talk of Iranian opposition being helped financially that’s bad - very very bad; but when reformists want to receive financial backing it’s good - very very good.
FDI has a great write-up of the developments taking place to the run-up of the Islamic Republic’s [s]election.
Here’s a excerpt:
According to Saeed Behbehani of MihanTV, a U.S. government emissary met in Dubai two weeks ago with Mehdi Khazali, campaign manager for Mir Hossein Mousavi, bringing assurances of U.S. government support for his campaign. So far, organizations such as “One Million Signatures” inside Iran, which is funded through NGO’s getting State Department fnding, have been mobilized in favor of Mousavi in the election. For 30 years, Iranian women have been knocking their heads on the doors of Western “feminist” organizations, seeking - if not help, at least sympathy. Until now, they have been given the brush-off. But with a “reformist” in the White House, “reformists” in Iran have access s to campaign war chests, VOA Persian Service, National Endowment for Democracy grants, and more.
