BELIEVE IT OR NOT, IRAN HAS BECOME EVEN MORE FASCIST

NYTIMES:

Taking the unusual step of limiting its own authority, Iran’s parliament on Wednesday adopted a law that would curb its ability to review regulations issued by the most powerful, un-elected institutions of the state.

It was not immediately clear what forces propelled the parliament to adopt a measure that would formally undermine powers granted to it under the constitution. But the decision seemed to acknowledge the reality that the elected parliament was often blocked from fulfilling its role as a watchdog over the elected and appointed institutions of state.

The legislation did, however, appear another to represent another step in the political evolution of Iran to a state where appointed officials and allies of the Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, wield far more authority than do the elected institutions.
ANOTHER STEP IN THE DIRECTION OF ISLAMO-FASCIST TYRANNICAL STATE.

OBAMA HAD A CHANCE TO HELP CHANGE THEM WHEN THE STUDENT REBELLION TOOK HOLD, BUT OBAMA DITHERED EFFECTIVELY SUPPORTING THE TYRANTS.

HE APPEASED THEM.

FOR THIS ALONE HE AND HIS PRESIDENCY SHALL FOREVER BE CONDEMNED TO SHAME.

I can see this happening in the UK. The MPs are already above the law, together with judges, lawyers and diplomats. The law is made in Brussels anyway. It seems the West is now copying the fascist dictators. Back to the dark ages - the darkest age.
