Guest commentary: Final battle of the Iranian Revolution?

We present a guest commentary that includes a guest commentary, and ask readers their thoughts. Are these events for real in Persia? At least one well-respected geopolitical analyst says it is highly unlikely that the Islamic Republic will fall – that Persia (Iran) is far too stable (going back 3,000 years) for this to be likely. Others claim American and British interference (as seen repeatedly in the last century) is behind all this, and this is just another effort to destroy Iran’s economy and society. But others point out the severe threats to prosperity and stability, together with environmental conditions (notably a once-in-a-thousand year drought) and the worldwide disaspora of Iranian refugees and supporters seeking to take advantage of the situation.

So we present, from Judith Gaga Friel and Goldie Ghamari, this commentary.
