... former Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) commander, Abu Taleb Shafeghat, has been appointed as the new governor of the northern Caspian Sea province of Mazandaran. This is the seventh such appointment of a military commander to a provincial governorship since Mahmoud Ahmadinejad took office as president of the clerical regime in Iran. Six other IRGC commanders had previously been appointed as governors of Kermanshah, Ardebil, East Azarbaijan, Bushehr, Ghazvin and Khuzistan provinces. More than half of the ministers of Ahmadinejad’s cabinet, and according to the state-run website Baztab, more than 70% of deputy ministers are former IRGC commanders.
It doesn't look good.
