Ahmadinejad Election Rival Launched Nuke Program -Yossi Melman
International Atomic Energy Agency documents revealed that Iran decided in 1987 to purchase the centrifuges it is using to enrich uranium during the tenure of Mir Hossein Mousavi [pictured above], the opposition leader running against President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Mousavi Win Wouldn't Stop Iran's Nuke Drive -Yaakov Katz
Senior Israeli defense officials stress that the outcome of the Iranian elections on Friday is unlikely to have any impact on Tehran's continued race toward nuclear power. If elected, Mir Hossein Mousavi, may succeed in "laundering" the program in a dialogue with the U.S. Some officials are concerned that Iran will be allowed to build and operate nuclear reactors. This would put the Islamic republic a turn of the dial on the centrifuges, and mere months away from an atomic bomb.

Lebanon's Triumph, Iran's Travesty -Elliott Abrams
Is the Iranian presidential election today a festival of freedom or a cover for theocracy?
Iran's election presents the voters with candidates [that] have been carefully screened to exclude anyone opposed to the ruling clerical establishment; each is part of the Islamic Revolution's old guard.
Voting in Iran is a contrivance for settling certain policy disputes and personal rivalries within the ruling elite.
A victory by Ahmadinejad's main challenger, Mir Hossein Mousavi, is more likely to change Western policy toward Iran than to change Iran's own conduct.
