Now we see who the real dictators are.
Yup. The Shah of Iran was probably the most enlightened leader in the Muslim world in the 1970's. But the American media branded him as a terrible dictator, Jimmy Carter sold him down the river, and we got a terrorist regime in Iran instead.
Mubarak was one of the more enlightened leaders in the Muslim world. But once again, he was portrayed as a monster, and we helped oust him.
The real monsters? YAWN. We wouldn't want to meddle in their internal affairs ... it just wouldn't be right.
Apparently this unprovoked attack on a mostly sleeping group that included women, children, and old people and has resulted in 4 deaths, also incuded a viscious attack on a journalist whose story is told on this AOL link:
