We had no plans for direct intervention in Berlin or Prague either, nor did we send signals to the citizens of East Germany or Czechoslovakia that we would directly intervene, but we gave moral support via our leadership’s statements and actions.....and that played a large part in the collapse of those oppressive regimes. Our government’s support was not “muted” in those cases. Why aren’t we doing that now?
Because Obama doesn't want the mullahs to get pissed off at him!
To be sure, they're free to hate America. But The One must be seen as a friend.
As long as it is a statement of support for and solidarity with the Iranian people that can’t be construed as a possible promise of intervention, I would agree with you.
I appreciate the mention.
