Thanks for the post. I had one ready, but you beat me with a much better explanation than I could have given. Islam is only a premise, a rationale for the type of opression that exists in Iran, Gaza, Saudi, etc. Their regimes have more in common with Castro's Cuba, Papa Doc's Haiti, or North Korea than not. Among other things, they
rely on an anonymous 'civilian security force', not bound by any law to infiltrate their populations and keep them afraid and compliant. All atrocity is permitted in the name of 'allah' (or 'the revolution', or the "dear leader',etc., whichever works under the cicumstance). Iran does not deserve this, no people anywhere do.
I'm no student of South Asian history, but I know what I see. Of all the foriegners I have studied or worked with in my lifetime, (there have been plenty, a diverse variety) I will say I have yet to meet an Iranian who I didn't like.
Islam is a fake religion. Communism is too. And obama, by recognizing these falsehoods as true, is a fake president. Freedom will win, somehow, but making it happen will be a long painful ordeal.
If we hadn’t been asleep at the wheel for so long, freedom would not be so hard to keep.
(Sorry. I’m just a bit p.o.’d right now.)
