>>You write: "I have no doubt that the votes were not counted at all at
that night."
You also write: "Based on the results received from several provinces
in which the counting process had finished, Mousavi realized that he
is most probably the great winner."
These two statements are contradictory, aren't they? Either the votes
were counted or they weren't.>>
Robert, I can understand you, but there is no contradiction. While counting
votes, during the first hours of counting there were two different but parallel
processes: the first one was usual process in which responsible persons were
counting the votes from which Mousavi had received his initial information,
another was a parallel center in the Interior Ministry who only announced
rushly the results without noticing the counting process! I understand that
this is unbelievable, but this is exactly what has made people angry here.
Such fraud process now seems to be designated about two days before the
election day, being approved by the religious leader, when AN's mafia
undoubtedly realized that Mousavi will be the winner.
>>The government's central count is an aggregation of the local counts. The
>>government has published the ballot box tallies on the web. If according to
>>Mousavi the results in several provinces showed that Mousavi was probably the
>>winner, we should be able to compare those numbers to the government's tally
>>and say where the discrepancy is.<<
What was initially and bit by bit announced was not an aggregation of some
numbers. The so-called aggregation was firstly announces, and then during the
days after election the ballot boxes were so prepared that they can produced
the aggregation. As you may know, Mousvi rejected to send a person for
recounting ten percent of the ballots.
>>> You write: "Anyway, there are enough evidences for the hypothesis
on a great fraud in the election. The lengthy report delivered by
Mousavi to the Guardian Council has left no doubt.! "
By "lengthy report" do you mean his letter to the Guardian Council
that has been published on the web and translated to English by
Teharan Bureau?<<
No, the letter only include some titles of the report. The report is about 60
pages in Persian, focusing on different phases of the election precess, and
showing many different methods of fraud in this great lie.
I am well aware that how much all these are strange. In the last 30 years (
not least after 1996 landslide victory of Khatami) , the election as a
political institution was a place in which many political struggles can be
solved . In th 30 anniversary of the revolution , however, the election
became the very subject of the political struggle. What has happened is
against the election institution itself.
M.M.
