Graphic video of an Iranian woman being shot dead while watching the Iran protests with her father is sweeping the net. While Iran state media is doing its best to put a muzzle on foreign media reporting on the
violent revolution unfolding in Iran, American media is under no such constraint. Americans are treated to the news that Obama is eating an ice cream cone.
As
news of 20 deaths so far between protesters and police in the streets of Tehran is reported by Iran's state media, American media reports that Hillary Clinton is
recovering from surgery on her elbow. Though the surgery has been described as minor, it has apparently left Hillary without a voice, as no statement has been forthcoming from our Secretary of State about the millions of Iranians who are risking death to protest their oppression by a tyrannical government.
President Obama, after being elected President in part due to his carefully crafted image as a champion of the oppressed and supporter of equality for all, has decided that America will remain neutral, as he made clear while addressing (and valudating) 'Supreme Leader'. As the chaos in Iran accelerates, Obama assures the world that he is
'bearing witness.' I'm sure brave Iranian people are breathing a collective sigh of relief.
As events continue to unfold, Obama has been forced to devote a small part of his never ending television face-time to opine that Iran should stop
"all violent and unjust actions." Noticeably lacking in Obama's address was the passion he showed a mere two days ago, when he put critics of his financial overhaul on notice, saying, "While I'm not spoiling for a fight,
I'm ready for one."
