As long as the people are living under the insanity of the so called "religious" leaders there is no telling what the outcome will be.
An enigma, wrapped up in a conunbrum. The people cannot speak against the zealots because that would be to defy the story book. Sharia law keeps them imprisoned within their religion.
I recall there was a move to oust the Iranian government but when you have the only religion allowed controlling everything to do with the government and the people, it is futile.
