"We Just Turned Our Backs on Freedom".

Do read and consider this piece by New York's Ralph Peters: Green Light for Crackdown.

"SILENCE is complicity. Our president's refusal to take a forthright moral stand on the side of the Iranian freedom marchers is read in Tehran as a blank check for the current regime. "

"Foreign media reps are under house arrest. Cellphone frequencies are jammed. Students are killed and the killings disavowed. And our president is "troubled," but doesn't believe we should "meddle" in Iran's internal affairs. (Meddling in Israel's domestic affairs is just fine, though.) We just turned our backs on freedom. "
