Iran’s republic was subordinated to clerical rule, not inevitable

A Radio Zamaneh analysis argues that the 1979 revolution did not inevitably lead to clerical rule: Islamist forces prevailed in the post-revolution power struggle and made popular sovereignty subordinate to religious authority. It also cites Expediency Council member Mostafa Mirsalim’s recent remark, reported by Iranian media, that Iran’s oil is anfal belonging to God and the Prophet, not the people.
