Tuesday June 30, 2009 I've Been Thinking: The Guardian Council in Iran confirmed yesterday that the June 12th elections will stand and that the partial recount and the investigations into all the irregularities did not change the outcome of the election. The Guardian Council is one of the two most important councils in Iran. It is composed of 12 people - 6 are appointed by the Supreme Leader, 6 are chosen by the parliament. The Assembly of Experts is the second most powerful council in Iran. According to Iranian law, in order to be a member of either the Guardian Council or the Assembly of Experts, one must be a religious expert. It was an unacceptable stance. Read my new book THUGS. It's easy. Just click. 4 June 2017 12:13 PM in Thoughts
