>From the Iranian front, close personal sources reveal to me the mullahs of
Iran are seen by Iranians as more barbaric than the regime of Saddam
Hussein. Cited as evidence was the recent plane crash killing hundreds of
Revolutionary Guards. It's widely believed that it was planned and executed
by certain quarters of the Iranian parliament, and a favored method for
political assassination. It was also said by sources--though I pray it's not
true--that a majority of Iranians at home and abroad are pro war on Iraq.
They hate Saddam for the 8-year war and want him ousted almost as much as
they want their mullahs ousted. It's the not-so-secret hope that after
Baghdad it will be on to Tehran.
