The dominant view among Obama administration officials is that the regime will look so bad as a result of whipping up Iranian hopes for democracy and then squelching them that the regime may feel compelled to show some conciliatory response to Obama’s gestures of engagement. ... sounds like Obama in Wonderland with Ahmadinnerjacket as the rabbit.

I wonder about Mousavi as well. After all, he was chosen by the mullahs.

We shall see, I guess. Time will tell.

I hope and pray that this time they will get the revolution right.

I guess this is the foreign policy crisis that Biden warned us about. I hope that Obaqma does nothing that a future president has to apologize to Iran for.

Jimmy helped bring down the Shah, albeit unintentionally. You would think that would give the man pause.

Rumor has it that Mousavi has been arrested.

And good ole Jimmah says the election was on the up and up. Can’t we leave him over there.

I’ve said it before and so many others have also said the same thing – the ME countries that are ruled by dictators only respect one thing; an opponent’s ability to blow them off the face of the earth and the will and conviction to do so. Obama looks weak to all of the dictators, and they’re acting appropriately.

We can agree that there will indeed be blood shed.
I think democracy in Iran will be aborted this time around.

Obama, Clinton and the media seemed to think Obama’s speech would make the “election” close and encourage “debate”.
I think Obama projected weakness that made the mullahs realize they could be more brazen and repressive. A lot of people in Iran are going to be disappeared.
I predict that once the mullahs finish reconsolidating power post election they’ll redouble their work destabilizing Iraq and Afghanistan… because they know Obama is all velvet, no hammer.

The mullahs should be living a life where they can never drive in the same car two days in a row lest it have a gas leak and explode or something

John Bolton would have been my choice for SS – yeah, I know it’s a pipe dream, but he seems to be one of the few who always knew what the real truth of the matter lied with Iran, as well as with the rest of the ME.
