A blog post reposting a GlobalPost news roundup and an NPR blog item. It notes the tense calm in Tehran after the disputed election protests, Obama's praise for protesters, and a hardline cleric's call for executions. Its focus is Scott Simon's NPR interview with Mohsen Sazegara, a Revolutionary Guard co-founder and former deputy prime minister. He calls the events a military coup. He says Guard members told Mousavi he had won but could not take office, and that fake results, arrests and the expulsion of reporters followed.
