The root of this crisis lies, on one hand, in the 'non-recognition' of the people and their public rights, and on the other hand, in their exaggerated claim that they, in the revolution and governance, possess authority, which they present under the guise of a self-proclaimed mission of guiding the people by the hardliners. Meanwhile, they themselves are in need of guidance more than anyone else.
