Those Who Do Not Learn From History....

Point is, while the Iranians were protesting, the President missed an historic opportunity to pitch democracy. Any idiot could have “deplored” the Iranian government’s heavy hand suppressing the protest. Encouragement, as he did with the Egyptian protestors, could have moved the Iranians to greater achievement. Having the US support is a valuable psychological lift for the disenfranchised. The President did not give it to the Iranians so where were they to turn? Nowhere, so they gave up.

Without Obama offering US help, will the Libyan protestors seeking democracy be the next to give up?

Albiwan..
