Moving and powerful. The Europeans are useless and Bush is falling into the same mealy morass of moral ambiguity that the State Department seems incapable of getting out of.

So sad. Very sad.

No use being a defeatist. Yes, the Europeans ARE useless, and there is no hope for them in the near future. That much is clear. President Bush does not do the right thing often enough, but he has done it several times, and whenever he did it, he was proven correct--and therefore, he is doing it more and more often.

Hypocrisy and greed and ignorance have been ruling the world--but their rule is coming to an end!

What would you have Bush do? If the US goes in and frees Iran, it would stay a mess just like Iraq will. The US will be an even worse bully in the worlds eyes, and the islamic fundamentalist would see the government change as evil US meddling. For this country to have a chance of having a stable government in the furture, it must be done by the people of Iran. The people must themself throw off an islamic government not an outside mostly Christian force so that the fundamentalist know that their time is up. It will take the youth of Iran getting organised and to be willing to fight to the death if needed, not the US, to free themselves from the shackels of islam.

Bush understands what the end result needs to be but he's useing a hands-off strategy. It's unclear whether or not that's a good idea. But this letter definitely makes some sort of American intervention look like a better idea.
