I don't understand your question. Could you rephrase it?

I was wondering what your feelings on the people of Iran were, if you felt that they are in support of the decisions of their leaders or not.

Iran is a Republic, and from what I've read, the population is primarily anti-Semitic. I don't know if they're for or against badges, but I do know a huge number are against Jews.

Actually, President Hugo Chavez was democratically elected.

So were Hitler and Saddam. That means nothing. Chavez just said a couple days ago he is considering being president until 2031. That's another 25 years. I think that would make him a dictator. Here is a link.

Hmmm... The BBC, a legitimate news source, vs. a random blog using an uncited source... Which to trust?

Somehow I knew that was coming. Hold on, I'll find something more to your liking. Okay, here ya go. Fox and Yahoo. How's that. It should be able to be found in all the major news sources.
