Iran's President Hassan Rouhani praised in the mass rally, the stability of his country. The "conspiracy" of the United States, Israel, and other "reactionary States" in the Middle East against Tehran was doomed to Failure, said, a security source said on Monday. The number of people on the streets of the country showed that the "enemy will achieve his diabolical objectives," never.
on the occasion of the celebrations announced by the government, Pardons and criminal decrees for 50,000 prisoners. Whether the Amnesty is for political prisoners, remained open. 40. The anniversary is overshadowed by the renewed U.S. sanctions, which have led the country in the last few months in a political and economic crisis.
external political tensions, power struggles and fragile economy
On 11. February 1979 had been proclaimed in Iran, the end of the monarchy. A month later, the Islamic Republic was founded. As the leader of the revolution and founder of the Shi'ite Theocracy of which the first Supreme leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, had prepared from his exile in the French municipality of Neauphle-le-Château, from the overthrow of the monarchy.
The 40 years of the Islamic Republic since the Iranian satirist Ali Mirfattah summed up in one sentence: "From the monarchists to Islamic Revolutionaries were monarchists, and many of the Revolutionary."
daily mirror tomorrow location for Free orderIran's clergy sees it quite differently. The Iranians are of the view that the clergy to the principles of the Revolution: independence, freedom and Islamic Republic. The state news Agency IRNA, speaking of a "robust tree", the "invincible".
but The reality is different. External political tensions, internal political power struggles between reformers and hard-liners, and a fragile economy dominate the country. In addition, more than half of the present population, more than 40 million people was born after the Revolution. For the criteria of their parents or grandparents from the 1980s are no longer portable. They have also made at various protests.

"Not Gaza, not Lebanon, we sacrifice ourselves for Iran" was a Slogan in street protests in the past year.
Ruhani holds a rejuvenation of the leadership necessary
An important platform for critics and therefore a big Problem for the clergy - is the Internet. What could still be a few years ago is not, frankly, is now read every day in social media.

Century are not assessed correctly, this could lead to a dangerous conflict of generations,“ warns even President Hassan Ruhani.
He is even of the opinion that the leadership needs to rejuvenate. "The managers in our country are now in an age where you in the longer term, not much can move," said Ruhani. The descendants of the architects of the Revolution are concerned. "In fact, there is no guarantee that we will stay forever", says Hassan Khomeini, grandson of the 1989 deaths of Ayatollahs.
Khomeini is considered the head and the heart of the Islamic Revolution. He turned for life against the monarchy and against the United States, and especially against Israel. After returning from 14 years of exile, the constitutional Council in 1979 appointed him "Imam", the Supreme religious leader. After his death, this role took Ali Khamenei, has the final say in all strategic matters.
An early end to the regime is, according to many observers in the country unlikely.
