Rouhani is not the first Iranian leader to be democratically - TopicsExpress



          

Rouhani is not the first Iranian leader to be democratically elected. The country has held successive peaceful elections that are seen as fair. The past few years have easily been the most difficult and trying in Iran’s history as international financial and political sanctions — driven by the US and its allies — have crippled the oil-driven economy, trade and everything else, not to mention the untold hardship inflicted on its people. Besides, Iran has lived perpetually under the shadow of an imminent Israeli/US attack. If the country has managed to hang on in there in the face of great odds, it is largely because of the never-say-die spirit of its immensely proud and resilient people, says AIJAZ ZAKA SYED gulfnews/opinions/columnists/momentous-opportunity-for-iran-to-make-a-fresh-start-1.1201372
