It is going to take external military support (like in Iraq) before the other 90% act to replace the government.

Anybody else tired of hearing this?

Moslems are totally useless.

What do you expect them to do?

I have been here long enough to see that the people who speak so harshly of the Iranian PEOPLE - not the lunatic regime - have so idea really, what's been happening in Iran.

There are people all across the land who demonstrate, almost DAILY. When they do, massive militarized force, militias, and islamist vigilantes called basijis (all of these groups are new to Iranians, introduced after the islamic revolution) both uniformed and in civilian clothing, surround the demonstrators. All electricity in the region is cut off, all phone-lines are cut off, all lines of communication are cut off, all cameras and videos are confiscated. And then the regime allows the demonstrations to proceed while they watch and film EVERYTHING. They film faces, they film the loudest protesters, the plainclothes militias mingle amongst the people and listen and record conversations. And the militia goads the people on and on and on until in comes to an end and eventually the people leave. But there it is in the middle of the night when the militia come to the homes they have pinpointed as the leaders, the loudmouths, the daring, and they take people's children away with no words or explanation. Some disappear for months and families go desperately from prison to prison - those are the official prisons I mean, not the secret prisons belonging to one or the other interior or intelligence ministries - looking for their loved ones. There the regime build "official" records for their catch of the day. Oh anything from having used alcoholic beverages to having unislamic relations with the opposite sex, to "disturbing peace and tranquility," and being "hoodlums." They force confessions, get 80 to 100 lashings and sent home with warning that the next time the regime won't be as benevolent.

There is more, much much more that is happening in Iran, but this is a small mental picture.

Now you tell me if you are tired of hearing that Iranians loath this regime, and that you think they should get off of their a@#@$es and do something about it.

"Anybody else tired of hearing this?

Considering what liberals stand for why should Moslems be different or better?

No kidding! Do it yourself. Get some passion and educate the people who are swayed by rabble-rousing and take control of your own country. Sorry. That's how you have to do it.
