Protests in Iran

[blue]

Jimmy Carter should already be in Iran apologising for mettling in their affairs in the late 70s.

Obama needs to strongly condem the Iranian gov for their handeling of the election and protests. Obama should also back Israel financialy and politicaly in protest of Irans actions.

I graduated from college in 1981 and the Iranian students at that time were very defiant and anti-American, even holding their own protests (and flag burning session). I guess they were caught up in the revolution. BUT they seemed to live a life contrary to their principles - drinking, smoking and having promiscuous sex with American girls. BUT DOESN"T THAT SOUND LIKE JUST ABOUT MOST OTHER COLLEGE YOUNG MEN OF THE TIME - and probably now. I think that once the novelty of the power shift wore off and the effect of a secular government running things took hold, many secretly longed for some of their now lost freedoms. Maybe a generation or two of disenchantment has set in, and they are ready for a change again?
