Everyone thinks they are doing God's work, but the fact is, is that it usually is an excuse for control, suppression, and violence. There is no way the regime is going to stay intact, and after 37 years of rule, they could setup a new government and go live their lives somewhere else worshipping their God, instead imposing their tainted views upon the populace. This is the problem with men in power, once they get power they forget the will of the people. Not just Iran but Israel too, and many others.
