When his socks go missing in the laundry, a Jew did it.

Thanks for the picture and comments! If I don't miss my bet, that is but a tiny representation of world-wide sentiment among tens of thousands who are ex-Iranian.

That sentiment will hopefully grow into action by millions to directly support a successful revolution that does lead to freedom from the tyranny of mad-mullah rule in any 'state.'

We can all write to the White House, Congress-critters, media, and tell them how lame they have been in support of freedom - and sanity!

It takes a special form of wilful ignorance to keep that kind of self-delusion going, dude.

The troglodyte view that DA JOOOOOOOOOOOOS killed Christ so they are responsible for every evil in the world and deserve every any persecution they can be given.

Yeah... Well, I'm going to go way out on a limb here and wildly assert that there are no Jews alive today who are responsible for His crucifixion.

Guess blind hatred doesn't go much for facts though, eh?

"The top photo is of an Iranian girl with the same name ‘Neda Soldani’. She is however, still very much alive."

Thanks for your post. I saw the 'Soldani' last name too, when I first saved the picture, and named it that. Later then I saw the other with Agha Soldan... and began to wonder about the possibility of them not being the same person.

Hey, there are two other people in the US with my exact same name (all three, first, middle and last name.)

[Frantzie]

It is shame the sheeple here just turn on TV and follow Hussein off the cliff. The Iranians are at least trying.

[Bruinator]

It doesn’t really matter does it? She died, whether they are the same or not.

I wish I was good at posting pictures.

I would post a picture of the smiling Iraqi women with holding up her purple ink stained finger with a caption
“This is the result of America Meddling” Thank you George W. Bush”

Then under that

I would post a picture of NEDA dying in the streets of Iran
caption
“This is the result of America being timid” Shame on you Barrak Obama.

[Riptides]

You must be Iranian.

We Americans are a funny lot, we can be mean, hateful and downright rude to each other for the dumbest reasons. But, we are also the same people that will hike mountain trails for days without sleep looking for a lost boy scout. We overwhelm charities with aid when disasters strike; we line up around hospitals and wait all day to donate blood when a call is made. From our population we have created the greatest military in the world made up of all volunteers. We will not stand by and allow anyone to be repressed, bullied or brutalized regardless of how we feel about the person being attacked.

Americans saw that video, we all watched a beautiful young woman die a painful death. With a terrified look on her face she drowned in her own blood while her father held her and screamed out as he helplessly watched his daughter die all because she stood on a street. That is something that strikes at the hearts of all Americans.

Regardless of their political beliefs the majority of Americans stand with the Iranians and are completely shocked by 0bama’s indifference and almost apparent desire to see the Iranians fail. He is on the wrong side of history and is completely separated from what we see as the very definition of America.

The swing voters will remember this more than anything else for the rest of his term regardless of how things end in Iran. If the people win it will be in spite of 0bama, if they fail it will be because he did nothing. He is finished. I personally believe by 2011 his poll numbers will be so low his people will tell him not to run again. I would say he would end it like LBJ did, but 0bama’s ego would never allow him to step aside.

Most people are not stupid; they will eventually see this as the end result of the Bush doctrine and will know that he was right.

No,I was just saying that there is no evidence of a rigged election. There is just speculation.

"Speculation = Fact" is quite typical of the mindset of many FReepers these days, in case you haven't noticed.

[Gondring]

Recall that it took a year and a half for W to push “democracy.” He was wise enough to push for “Freedom”...after all, democracy might mean “anti-American” if that’s what the majority wants.

[Gondring]

Interestingly, Neda was not a Mousavi supporter.

Her fiancé pointed out:

It seems that Mr. Mousavi's supporters are trying to portray Neda as one of his supporters. This is not so. Neda was incredibly close to me and she was never supportive of either two groups.

[Gondring]

Time to play "One of these pics is not like the others..."

(NOT Neda Agha-Setan)

Reading Lolita in Tehran, right?

[Gondring]

You must be Iranian.

Nope. I'm just not ignorant.
