Iran moving to military dictatorship, says Clinton

US SECRETARY of State Hillary Clinton has said Iran is becoming a military dictatorship, a new accusation in the midst of rising tensions over Iran’s nuclear ambitions and crackdown on anti-government protesters.

Speaking to Arab students at Carnegie Mellon’s Doha campus, Clinton said Iran’s Revolutionary Guard corps appears to have so much power, it effectively is supplanting the government.

“Iran is moving toward a military dictatorship,” she said. “That is our view.”
