They're all muslims, get it? I swear, I do not want us to lift a finger to help them. Bush is right to ignore them.

The impression I get is that the Iranian students are against the Mullahs and their control over the country. This, by definition, makes the rebellion a rebellion against Islam itself.

Am I correct in this, DoctorZIn? That the rebellion seems a rebellion of people who are tired of rigid Islam, who are tired of living under Sharia law, and who would prefer to live more like the West?

It's a rebellion against fundamentalist rule, not against islam. Sorry, I will always view islam as a threat to civilization. As another poster is fond of saying here: "Islam is an insane murder cult and moderate islam is its Trojan Horse."

Absolutely. The hypocrisy of the Islamic Regime has destroyed its credibility with the vast majority of the Iranian people.
