These protests are purely about “freedom” which is a yawner for the left. The existing regime is very economically socialist in ways, given that, why would you need freedom. That’s where we’re headed here, what’s to complain about? /sarc
The Letter says
We are coming for you!
Except that not all of them are Muslim, Liberals are no different from the thugs who currently run Iran. How long until what’s happening in Iran starts occurring here? Maybe an ACORN run Census, or imposed Socialist Health Care, would be the trigger.
Jimmy Carter Redux. Jimmy Carter, the Godfather of the Islamic Revolution!
AN EXCELLENT SITE IN ENGLISH AND FARSI IS:
Videos, Tweets, on the spot commentaries are constantly updated.
Anyone have information on the latest positions of Reza Pahlevi, the son of the late Shah? He appeared often and spoke out against the repressive regime on French news earlier in the week, but nothing since.
He and his family haved lived in the DC area for many, many years. He was educated in the US, and is very pro-western, pro-American.
Why does youtube keep deleting it.
It seems to be gone. I’m just going to sign up for facebook.
Not sure what Youtube’s policy is but it is very graphic. It’s hard to watch.
I found it. It’s now much farther down. New videos keep piling on.
Kudos to HP for keeping this stuff on their servers.
F* youtube.
Good site for news up to the minute about Iran from inside on :
Besides going for Ice Cream, fiddling while Rome burns, getting in touch with his inner Nero, what has Obama done to continue the GOP/Conservative relation with the CIA and Iranian exiles?
Obama is getting more in touch with his inner Jimmy Carter as well.
Obama should be meeting in private with his CIA task forces on Iran, unless, of course, he has dissolved them.
The US under Reagan ,Bush 41, and Bush 43, had strong, excellent ties, and close relations with the Iranian community in exile, here in the US, in France, and around the world.
The CIA worked closely within dissident factions inside Iran, and in the exile community. They developed connections, resources, and forces inside Iran.
The late Shah’s son, Reza Pahlevi, lives in the DC area with his family.
“But the look in her eyes was horrible to watch.”
Yes, that was haunting and it hurt more to hear the cries of anguish from her father.
Perhaps you don’t know, they DID win the election. Wasn’t even close. That’s what this mess is all about. Nutjob came in third, but since he had guns, Arabic speaking police and military on his side, game’s over. He won.
The going for ice cream definitely makes it appear that Obama is disinterested in what is happening in Iran (perhaps he is already in on the outcome). If everything were on the up and up though; I have to agree with him not coming out and making a statement. The Iranian government is already jumping on Iranian Nationalism as a means of going after the protesters by casting them as agents of the West. Any statement that we make will be used to back up that claim. Words are hollow at this point. They need help not comfort.
Very disturbing.
But I’m glad it didn’t stop the Ayatollah Obama and his little group of Ayatollettes from enjoying their ice cream.
Pass along this video and show people what Khomeni is doing to his own people.
If it’s like this THERE, it will be worse when it gets HERE.
Hope for the Best; Prepare for the Worst.
James Madison:
Americans need never fear their government because of the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation.
I saw it also. The look in her eyes will never leave me. I think she knew she would die in seconds. Truly mind numbing.
I forwaded the link to only one person - someone I know with a strong constitution.
In a way I hope it is more widely seen.....the urge to see the same look in the eyes of the Iranian regime would be overwhelming.
Her name was Neda, which according to wikipedia means divine messenger. Very fitting, I think.
Apparently, she was just an innocent bystander, watching the protest with her father. How horrifying...I hope America can avoid this path and that we will never lose our freedom of assembly.
Making things up serves no purpose.
What prison? What menu?
Or admit you made it up.
