I agree, the United States needs to worry about America first, were still struggling here. I mean i hope this gets resolved before all of Iran’s citizens are wiped off. I don’t know what Obama would do, but usually in Bush’s case he always made matters worse. Like his involvment in Israel, all those Palestinians that were killed he was to blame.

Stay the fuck out of it. It’s the age of instant information and free thinking. They’re starting to reject the idea of God’s will being rule by a single person, no matter what any of the 29 Grand Ayatollahs on Earth say. The Iranian revolution was just a fundamental backlash against the infidel’s support of the Shah. Now that such a large chunk of their population wasn’t even alive under the Shah it’s only a matter of time before they tell Khomeini to shove his “God demands a single ruler” rhetoric.

I’m very impressed by those words coming from someone living in Iran. I think things in any country and any society will begin to change when people are willing to die for their rights and beliefs.

Yup. It’s their own problem…

yeah because people hate us because of how good we have it and not because we meddle in everyone else’s business, fund wars of our own and other’s, fund coup’s and terrorism (cia), ect, ect.

It’s just because we rock that they hate us.

You know Saddam used to hold elections too, he won them all too! He killed thousands with genocide, used hunger as a weapon…blah blah blah.

This crazy guy is going to be doing it for the internet to watch and 1 women gets killed and the world wants his head.

Its almost like we kicked the door in for the world regarding middle-east dictator relations when we went into Iraq.

I just hope we don’t “support” them to rise up and leave them stranded like we did with the Iraqis in the first gulf war.

Also, lets face it, its easy for all those other countries to take a hard line, or one harder than ours, because they know if the shit hits the fan, its going to be 40,000 US Marines, 70,000 US Army Soldiers, 30,000 Royal Marines and 25,000 “UN sanctioned” troops.

Kinda intresting that all these people are uprising right now over this election when we have a strong military presence in 2 of the neighboring countries. Kinda like a US Armed Forces sandwich with the Navy as dip 😛 Wonder where some of the people escaping the fighting went spreading the good, not just the CNN bad about our troops.

lol running against Saddam, unless you were one of his lackeys approved to do so so that it looked like there was a fair election, was a good way to dead yourself.

This should be an Iranian revolution. Hopefully they can do it. Many people don’t realize that prior to the Ayatolla(sp?) Iran was becoming a very liberal mid east country.

LOL at the information age. The president of the USA is sending a message of support to Iranian dissenters via an internet called Twitter also used by teenage girls to gossip. FDR must be lolling in his grave.

Why, its better than the radio right now? I could easily see FDR with a podcast or blog if the technology existed during the 30’s.
