Not much. I don't think the unhappy group has enough support throughout society to pull of a real revolution and the Ayatollahs are too vested in the current system to want to open it up for change. Think Tienanmen Square not the fall of the Berlin Wall.
I think probably even less will happen than your dad does. They are already banning press coverage of the rallies....it will be squelched pretty quickly. Doesn't bode well for Israel.

I think Mousavi's mistake was calling in Al Gore's lawyers to support his challenge...
Seriously though, behind the scenes it will get bloody, we will find out much later how bloody. Sadly, Big A stays put.
I'll put $5 on the guy who probably should have won but "didn't" getting assassinated by someone in the existing regime.
