Iran Government accused that the British intelligence instigated after election violence in Iran.Irani foreign minister Manicheher Muttaki today(Sunday) said in Tehran to the foreign diplomats that Britain wanted to spoil the Iran's President election by sending secret agents. I think in this accusation has some truth. The western powers destroyed Iraq. Now they are trying to destroy Iran to establish absolute supremacy in the Middle East.

Iran is full of conspiracy theories. I have absolutely no doubt that British Intelligence is active in Iran as will be the intelligence services of most other major countries. However, I think it highly unlikely that they have the capability to instigate violence there. Britain and the US are perceived as a threat to Iran and with some justification. We didn't support the Mullahs' takeover and would welcome the demise of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and would like to see a pro-western government. But to suggest that we are there causing violence there and want to take control of Iran/Middle East is just too fanciful for words.

There can be debate on your comments and views about Iran. But I object your this comment:'we would like to see a pro-western government(in Iran)'. Why pro western government? That means a government which will serve the interest of the west.We all can want a real democratic government in Iran. Thank you for your thoughtful response.

Yes, MI 5 is bad, they want to control Iran , they have problem with the present Iranian president, so they have to do something about it. It is nothing new among intelligence community worldwide.
UK is a superpower, Brit. can do whatever they please with this election and this mad man who disrespect UK.

Saddam Hussein destroyed Iraq. It's people now have the chance to rebuild a better country.
Supreme Leader Khamenei is doing everything he can to ensure the people of Iran do not get the same chance, including blaming some of the riots in his country on the "Western Powers". If he were to focus his considerable power on the freedoms of his people, he would find them less able to be swayed by foreign interference (if there even was any).
The "absolute supremacy" you speak of the "West" desiring is the supremacy of democratic law, something that I'm sure is frightening to someone titled "Supreme Leader".

In the sake of argument I can accept that Saddam Hussain destroyed Iraq. For only one person one country should not be destroyed by the invaders.During Saddam's period Iraq was a prosperous country. After America's invasion Iraq became mass of ruins.Is America the master of the world? Have they right to punish a less powerful country ? Let Iran choose their own destination. None should interfere their internal affairs.

Let me start by saying I do love the fact that heads of other nations think the British are competent enough to set this kind of thing up - as the Brits sure the hell don't think they can.
Now even if this being helped along by British secret agents (something I find very unlikely as it seam to me that the British would have to get the leader of the opposition on board, something I don't see happening) the people actually protesting, the people on the street, the people being shot, they are Iranians. Iranians have an issue with the election if they did not they would not be protesting. In a democracy you have the right to protest.
Now on to Iraq as that seams to be your default comeback to every post so far. I disagree strongly with the invasion of Iraq. I did everything in my power (protested and wrote to my MP) to convince Parliament not to go to war. Why did we go to war? I don't think the reason was weapons of mass destruction. I hope that the review will answer this. I fear the real reason will be covered up on request Blair or Bush.

I don't know it seems to me that the West can't run it's own countries well why would we want more to manage? You could say oil, but the US has it's own oil
and I think is saving it so that it will bring a higher price. But I think that is going to bite us in the backside, because before the rest of the world runs out of oil the world will have moved on to other sources of energy. So why would we want those middle eastern countries? So far fear has motivated us but soon that will not
be realistic. Without oil those countries will return to poor starving people without enough food or water to keep them going. Am I missing something here?

I think this is true. As far as my opinion is concern. President Ahmadenijad, say this to hide what really is the truth in Iran. I don't the western power want to destroy Iran, without any reason. They only concern about the people in Iran, that want a full democratic government, that they can freely move without intervention from the government. They need changes that why they protest.

Why would they want to? Why would they want supremacy in the Middle East? They have their own problems don't you think without adding anymore.
