“Amid the talk of despair and quashed protests, one defiant reformist supporter told this reporter: “The regime wants the world to think they have won. Don’t believe it… Even if this regime is about to collapse, they would not let anybody know until their final hour.”
Why should we be surprised that they hanged them – the world did nothing when they beat and shot people in the streets. It’s so sad.
“The decision on Iran was very personal, officials said. Mr. Obama knew his senior aides’ views, but it was up to him to “pull the trigger.”"
WTF is so “personal” about standing up for people’s fundamental right to free speech and assembly and objecting to peaceful protesters being beaten and shot?
Or is it “very personal” for him to defy the Supreme Leader?
Honduran Protest Images = youths trashing and looting the city. Most footage consists of military and police. Why? If the cameras were turned to look at the protesters, the crowd would look small indeed.
Iranian Protests = of thousands citizens of all ages protesting a tyrannical regime
“First, I’d like to say a few words about the situation in Iran. The United States and the international community have been appalled and outraged by the threats, the beatings and imprisonments of the last few days. I strongly condemn these unjust actions, and I join with the American people in mourning each and every innocent life that is lost.”
Some may argue that this is a hypercritical examination of his words – but he is VERY particular about the words he uses. He only uses the first person to join in mourning the loss of life. He does not ascribe his personal outrage to the beatings and murders in Iran. Why?
With today’s Honduran coup all he can muster is “deep concern”.
“I am deeply concerned by reports coming out of Honduras regarding the detention and expulsion of President Mel Zelaya.”
“WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG” Mr. President?
Freedom is crumbling around the world while America meekly looks away.
