The Iranian People are rising up against their repressive regime again today. Let’s hope this time that President Obama doesn’t ignore them again in favor of kissing the dictator’s ass.
Iranian security forces on Sunday killed at least four people, including a nephew of opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi, during the fiercest clashes with anti-government protesters in months, opposition Web sites and witnesses said.
Amateur video footage purportedly from the center of Tehran showed an enraged crowd carrying away one of the casualties, chanting, “I’ll kill, I’ll kill the one who killed my brother.” In several locations in the center of the capital, demonstrators fought back furiously against security forces, hurling stones and setting their motorcycles, cars and vans ablaze, according to video footage and pro-reform Web sites.

It would be nice if these images would cause our President to get angry or something….

What do you want Obama to do about this? Has it really become our job to police the entire world? From the looks of it, the people of Iran want a revolution. We can’t really aide them unless the Iranian government actually launched an attack on us. Unfortunately, nobody supports non-interventionism anymore. Getting “mad” about it doesn’t really help.
GP ED NOTE: Getting “mad” about it doesn’t really help. No, but words of support do. Case study: Ronald Reagan, AFL-CIO & Pope John Paul II with Poland.
WHAT! and interrupt his ‘well deserved’ golfing vacation in Hawaii??
You don’t expect the One to actually do the dirty work, that’s not why he became president.
I’m sorry to say that with each day I fear for our security as a nation and even my personal safety. We have become the laughing stock of the world, and the muslims won’t let this opportunity pass to harm us.
With this pencil necked dweeb in the White House I am doubly glad that I, and my kids and grandkids do not live in the major target cities. Nope, I’ll just stay fifty miles from the city and nine miles from the nearest small town.
Funny, though. I’m out here where the Islamonuts would stand out like a yellow painted nose and I figure we ought to be serious about this here overseas contingency operation and most of the folks that live smack dab on the bullseyes laugh at this fight. Oh well, I don’t exactly figure I understand city folks.
Ron Paul fan doesn’t seem to notice or casre that Iran has been attacking us, since 1978. Also they have been killing our troops in Iraq and Afganistan, funding terrorists, and giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
but hey, you want to ignore them until they detonate an airblast over New York and send the eastern half of the US into the 18th century…
As to this president, yes, his silence on the attempts to overthrow the mullahs is contemptable, but on par with his hatred of free people.
Obambi is anti-military. The leftists want him out of Afghanistan now, not later. Their theme is that Afghanistan is going to be the same place five years from now that it is today, so get out now and save the lives and money.
I am sorry to say it, but they are right. We have so neutered the military and saddled it with community organizing details that no commander dare be Patton and just get the job of killing people and breaking things done.
I support Obama doing nothing in Iran, because he would not follow up in any meaningful manner. Why poke a stick at them when you are going to run away like a girl and blame it all on GW Bush?
The man-caused-near-disaster on the Northwest flight is Mirandized and lawyered up and now we can wait for years for him to come to trial. That is how polite society works in the Obambi world.
If Iran wants a revolution, let them have it. Our CIA is neutered. Our military is neutered. The UN is a bunch of eunuchs giggling at us and passing resolutions telling Iran to be nice and not to hit.
Soon enough Obambi can hang his Nobel medal around his neck and strut Al Sharpton style off to Copenhagen and apologize to the world for trans-fats and methane gas.
What proof do you have that Iran has attacked us or our troops. Furthermore WE are the ones intervening in Iraq. Iraq is Iran’s neighbor, not ours. Additionally, these threats would not exist without our dangerously interventionist foreign policy that Republicans love. With our current foreign policy we’ll continually inflame more and more hatred from people over seas and they’ll continue to come here to kill innocent people. As a result, our progressive government will lock things down more and more. More freedoms gone.
This is the road to tyranny people, and so-called conservatives should leave the emotionalism at the door and realize this. It’s our foreign policy that needs to change for this is a war (against individual acts of terrorism) we cannot “win”, however we can remove the need to fight it if they don’t have any reason to fight us. It’s that simple.
*Try to leave emotion out of it.
Why would he become angry? He is a muslim and a totalitarian. He’s rooting for the Ayatollahs.
