Leftists of DC Anti-War Network are planning a counter-demonstration. http://www.dawndc.net
I won't be able to go to this, but wanted to let you know. One might be able to make some good contacts at this event.
Leftists plan protest of the event. http://www.dawndc.net
I'm sure the Iranian marchers will handle the DAWN ninnies with greater tolerance than the Ayatollahs would their opponents.
Perle got a show thrown at him here in Portland when he debated Dizzy Dean. Meaning hes a great speaker if Peoples Republik of Portland hates him
The more and more the Leftist protest against freedom, the more and more that America and the world sees their hypocrisy, thus, the more and more the common sense people will turn them out and their voices will just become background noise.
Let's see, the rally is for freedom for the people of Iran who are forced to live under an oppressive, tyranical, cruel, abusive murderous theocracy that's trying to build nuclear weapons and that engages in and supports terrorism.
So what part of that are they counter-demonstrating?
Cats or Spamalot? Sorry, but I couldn't resist. :)
Ping to #2...
Iran Freedom Rally ping.
There may be a hot time in the old town this weekend as Bikers from all over descend on DC for their annual Ride to the Wall and the Freedom Rally all at once hit in there saturday. Not sure I would want to be a peace demonstrator when the Viet Nam Bikers hit town.
Looking forward to the DC report. Thanks for the ping, and greetings from Costa Rica.
Thanks for the ping!
Thanks for post. Those in Iran that seek freedom from a tyrantical regieme will continue to workd toward that goal.
Obviously the Mullahs will continue to stay in power until
the people revolt in mass. They can't expect us to wage a
total pre-emptive strike against their country's total infra-
structure, and send in full divisions of ground troops as we did in Iraq. Their cause must be driven from within.

I second your statments. Iraq as it slowly becomes a modernized democracy with a secular government in place, surely will help aid those in Iran to see that their dream for freedom is in bounds. It took them 20 some years to full into this morass, it may take another 20 to remove all traces of radical Islamic rule from power. Meanwhile those 50 some Mullahs continue to age. The ones that replace them being much younger may not be quite so set in their ways.
Guess time will tell. Once they manage if they do, to obtain nuclear devices, and the world knows about it, they are put into an even more precarious position. Surely many in Iran understand this.
BUMP
Thanks for the ping. The anti-freedom demonstrators probably ensure that more of the media will be there.
