The New Iranian Government.

The mainly Basij and Pasdaran composition of the new Iranian government, indicates a shift away, from the powers of Qom and the Mullahs, towards more powers to the Iranian military. This forcing the Supreme Guide Khamina'i to hold the stick from the middle; albeit tilting more towards the military, either for reasons of "real plotik", or because he senses the dangers to the powers of the Mullahs and consequently to himself, or even for both reasons. If the rumors are true about his rapidly failing health; after all there is talk of his successor being the former Minister of Justice, yet, if this trend of militarisation continues and gains in strength, it could be very likely that, Ayattullah Khamina'i will be the last Supreme Guide in Iran and with with him, the concept of "Velyat-i Faqih" will go also. But, were there initially any differences between the objectives of the Mullahs and the Iranian military?. maybe not, but the last elections have shown that, it is all about power and who should be the power behind the Iranian presidency. When the military gains the upper hand, so do the military options, and when society is put primarily in the service of military options rather than religion, it means that, the mask has finally fallen of the face of the Iranian regime, exposing its real belligerent and expansionist face, with dreams of imperial ambitions.
