bloggers support iranian people

The open letter which John and other fellow bloggers are preparing to support Iran is great. The only thing is that they haven't considered any difference between reformists/hardliners or elected/unelected parts of the regime. This is not true that all parts of the current regime are helping the tyranny. The fact is that the parliament is actually out of function by a hardliner council which should confirm every single law that parliament passes, while all members of this council are all chosen by the leader. (Take a look at the power structure in Iran) I'm not a politician to figure out a way to get rid of unelected parts of the system, but I think what we can do now, is to attract world support and understanding from all around the world for what Iranian people really want and how they want it; they want a democratic free society in a peaceful way.
