I really don't like this kind of discussions but as asked,I'll participate.
I'll only talk about Iran and not anywhere else.
30 years ago when that nasty revolution happened in Iran,98% of people voted for a new government and after a week or two,almost all of them were regretful of what they had done,because the new government which was called "Islamic republic of Iran" made everything worse, they killed hundreds of people as soon as they arrived;furthermore, they took the freedom from people.Then they said that countries like USA,England,Israel etc are all their enemies and should be removed from history.
They even burned the flags of those countries in the streets.
On the other hand,they shipped many guns and bombs to the terrorist in Iraq and Afghanistan and actually helped Al-Qaeda;moreover,they began to build Nuclear missiles and didn't listen to threats;therefore,other countries boycotted Iran, and people suffered a lot from them but the governments insisted that all the boycotts are useless.
And recently,people voted for 2 people in elections but Ahmadi-Nejad was again selected.Many people protested in the streets but the chief of police department mentioned that they'll "CRUSH" all resistance and they did.They killed as many people they could in which rated Iran as the first country in terms of people execution. They sent many people to jail and did horrifying things to them in the prison(Such as raping,hitting, and also killing).
And now,when Ahmadi-Nejad went to USA,A reporter asked him about the freedom in Iran and he simply said(or lets say lied)
"Iran is the most democratic country in the universe,people can freely say anything they want about the country."
Our government lies very easily,they kill any people who are against them, they've blocked many Internet sites(including facebook,twitter,BBC, etc.),they've taken freedom from people(You can't actually wear anything you like in Iran), and they simply.
They train many terrorists and send them to other countries,along with making nuclear bomb.
So you can't just imagine how life looks like in Iran.But the thing that hurts me(or lets say all innocent Iranian people) is that some people call us(all of us) terrorists which is far from true.I can't really blame them much though,because they hear terrible things from almost all "Musilm" countries.
In the end, Iranian people made a mistake 30 years ago by voting and now they suffering from the consequences.I think if countries like USA want to,they can destroy this governments pretty easily because currently no one in Iran can do anything about our government.Iranians are pretty much living in a prison rather than a country.
And from the looks of it, it seems this government will rule for a lot more years.
