This home invasion video from the streets of Tehran is the most chilling thing I've ever seen in my life. The struggle for freedom against the forces of repression is a never ending one. Here's to the Iranians fighting for their basic human rights.

Working a Monday-Friday schedule this week, so more tomorrow.

    This is what the Hate Americans First crowd wants the US Government to be able to do to "suspected" terrorists... Except when they're the ones advocating shooting federal officers in the head or seceding from the union or threatening the life of the President...

    "Rather than send them good wishes how about a few C130's loaded with weapons and ammunition" - Ah, yes, we can call this "Bush I+" - where you advocate the violent overthrown of a brutally repressive regime and then provide no real means of achieving such results. A few C130s? Apparently we're just looking to get people killed... And start a regional war guaranteed to send oil prices skyrocketing in an already depressed economy in a country already fighting two ground wars in Asia... Yes, this is what passes for "analysis" among the marginalized minority... It's sad.

    Let the Iranians sort this out. Over the next few weeks it will be a showdown between Supreme Leader Khamenei and Ahmadinejad on one side and Rafsanjhani, Khatami, and Mousavi on the other. The people in Iran don't want to overthrown the theocracy in Iran, just make sure their votes are properly counted.
    Think for myself

    VanessaJ: You literally write the same response to every story/opinion piece. It's like you exude contempt for everyone unlike you (Ayatollah Khomeini, peace be upon him, would be proud)! Here's some Farsi for you: Khaarkosseh, khafeh show!
