I'm not impressed with any participant .@Hack-Hook are you sincerely impressed by Pezeshkian? I have been very disappointed by him, I think he is not very competent at all. the only reason I would vote for him over Jalili is because Jalili is even less competent. At least Pezeshkian has a better understanding of social issues, Jalili is delusional and his path will lead Iran to 20% election turnout
but the idea of President Pezeshkian and President Trump is very worrying. imagine Israel launches full scale war on Hezbollah/Lebanon under Trump and we have weak Pezeshkian in power. we will be screwed and Axis of Resistance will take a big blow.
In the debates I thought they were both horrible.I'm not impressed with any participant .
But I knew jalili type and I have lived withem.
Also let be honest comparing pezeshkian with jalili and how they performed in ptheir previous posts I can't give jalili any grade above him
About our president and resistance I am far more varied about one or two of our commanding generals than our president no matter who the winner be. President have a lot less to say about the resistance than those Generals
Additionally, the language Pezeshkian uses is poor. Full of fake garbage. It’s enough that Zarif is barking for him. No thanks.In the debates I thought they were both horrible.
President of Iran is chairman of national security council which is where all real decisions are made, so President has some importance for that (not to say he can be decisive, but important). Agree many of the generals are extremely incompetent and should not have such high ranks. They lie a lot, with even stupid lies that can be easily proven wrong.
But in a hostile foreign environment I would rather have a hardline president than a soft reformist pro-West (rather, pro dialogue with the West) president. Trump will walk over Pezeshkian.
controversial perspective but this is a worrying trend. I think it is normal for every country to unify their language and culture as much as possible across ethnic groups.
