The White House: RECENT DEMONSTRATIONS IN IRAN
The White House ^ | 6.14.2003 | Press Secretary

STATEMENT BY THE PRESS SECRETARY

RECENT DEMONSTRATIONS IN IRAN

The United States views with great concern the use of violence against Iranian students peacefully expressing their political views. We are alarmed at reports of arrests and provocative actions taken against students by regime forces, and call upon the regime to protect the human rights of the students and to release those who have been arrested.

Iranians, like all people, have a right to determine their own destiny, and the United States supports their aspirations to live in freedom. It is our hope that the voice of the Iranian people and their aspirations for democracy and the rule of law will be heard.

The struggles that you are talking about are government negotiations between Churchill and Hitler; while simultaneously denying a responsible discourse. Hitler literally begged Churchill to set up Madacasgar as a method to support those of the Jewish faith.

Churchill ignored Hitler's perspective.

Would you care to expand on this a bit? I'm think a little more explanation would help us understand your point.

I guess in your mind, that absolves Hitler of murdering native-born German Jews?

And shifts the blame for same to Churchill? And why would one expect Churchill to agree to such a thing?

And do I recall you were a Buchanan supporter?

in fact, nationalism is alive and well, here in America stomping our individual dignity. And it is obvious, you buy the government stomping our dignity here in America.

You're on the wrong forum here Buckeroo. DU sounds like a perfect fit for you.

We'd better be ready to move fast on this one. I'm talking move REAL fast here

I've got a suspicion that we are poised and ready....just my humble opinion.

Your value system will allow YOU to judge me within an open web-site. If you need references about my discourse, why not ask me? Governments of all forms and types are not about truth; in fact, governments of all forms and types are about destoying our individual dignity.

I'm still waiting on Post 41. I can't wait to hear your answer.

Governments of all forms and types are not about truth; in fact, governments of all forms and types are about destoying our individual dignity.

Which form of government, if any, do you advocate?

And all you do is nothing about the world around you. Do you think I am the complaint department? Instead, do something about your beliefs; ensure your beliefs are substantiated; tell everyone about your beliefs

I told you and everybody who's reading this thread about it.

The U.S. Constitution defines a form of government to best protect individual rights.

Hitler's perspective of forced emigration was the antithisis of individual dignity.

You know, every once in a while I am tempted to go to a Freeper gathering, because there are so many interesting and nice people that I have met on this forum.

Then I read a thread like this, and I am reminded why I don't.

LOL-- Hey Buck, I live near "Kent State" and, trust me, the fiasco of 1970 memorial is nothing if not a tourist cash cow for the "university". As we say in Ohio, "Can't read? Can't write? Kent State!"

"Yet, he hasn't delivered."

Well, that all depends on what was ordered, doesn't it? In the minds of most citizens Bush delivered exactly what they hoped for...

Man, you are crazed into republican babble speak while more illegal aliens continue to crawl across our national borders.

They continue to be more concerned with the borders in Outer Mongolia, than our own, while our so-called leaders stand in stone silence in the face of this epic, ever escalating attack on our borders and our sovereignty.

There are a few good people here on FR; people that understand the notion of dignity and the basis about our nation.

Those that balley-hoo or croon over a political party, suck, though ..... thats why you rarely see me anymore.

**Churchill ignored Hitler's perspective.**

Some people ignore principle and would rather compromise with those that can't be trusted. Jews had nothing to do with Hitler's world wide aspirations. They were strawmen he used to get elected in Germany's anti-semitic climate.

I guess Washington and his ilk should have just tried to understand King Georgy Porgy's perspective.

"Jews had nothing to do with Hitler's world wide aspirations. They were strawmen he used to get elected in Germany's anti-semitic climate."

If they had "nothing to do" then why was it Hitler's policy to kill them off.?

Do you assert that Hitler simply acted upon the mass-will of "Germany's anti-semetic climate.?"
