U.S. journalists have no guts, else they would get into Iran and show the truth.

Again, the Left shamefully betrays repressed peoples.

FDR's ambassador to the Soviet Union Joseph Davies admired the show trials--today the Left finds nothing amiss in Iran.

"U.S. journalists have no guts"

I wish guts was all it was, PD. Unfortunately, it goes deeper than that. To their very essence. (and it's not just U.S. journalists). These are their fellow reporters;
their colleagues. Yet they say nothing.
Heard any of this reported?

"Reporters Without Borders said today the plight of Iran's journalists was worsening, with further arrests, police summonses and threats ..." (8/28/03)

"More than 50 journalists were summoned between mid-July and mid-August, according to Reporters Without Borders."

"The current risky situation for journalists was shown by the 16 August kidnapping of Hassan Raghifar, the elderly editor of the regional weekly Asan (in the northern city of Tabriz), who was tortured by his four kidnappers who interrogated him about his work and threatened to kill him for what had written. His paper had reported on the arrest and torture of journalists."

"Iran is the biggest prison for journalists in the Middle East"
