Back in 2009, just after the election of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, you may recall the "Green Uprising." For a brief moment, it looked like the young people of Iran were finally doing what we've all hoped they would do. The regime wobbled, the streets flooded with protesters, and (with just a modicum of support) it appeared they were about to take back their once forward-thinking nation from the stone-age barbarians currently in charge. We all watched, waited, and clamored for President Obama to do something - anything - to help.
...And that help never came.
Now, Wall Street Journal reporter Jay Solomon, we know why. Obama refused to support the uprising, ordered his CIA operatives to stand down, and let the movement, often literally, die.
