After all, would we be seeing what’s going on today in Iran, if Saddam Hussein hadn’t been toppled as leader of Iraq?

Hell no! The Iranian Mullhas could still claim that they needed to be in charge to counter Saddam.

Umm…the Iranians demonstrated against the regime back in the 1990s. Saddam had nothing to do with the support for democracy in Iran.

Name one thing your hero, George W. Bush, did that supported freedom around the world?

Very good point about the bankrupting of the French Empire. Although in fairness, there were other factors involved than just the world war against Britain but the world war was a major factor nonetheless.

Iraq and Afghanistan have had a similar effect on the U.S. treasury. Another intervention, and the U.S. government will collapse; they’re struggling to borrow the 100 billion a month needed to fund their dreams of world domination.

This isn’t about the protesters in the street, this is about the average Iranian who is neutral. The average Iranian, given the history of US involvement in domestic Iranian politics, may not view the US picking sides the same way as you and the protesters would. Besides, if the Iranians need a resolution from the US Congress to demand freedom from their oppressive government, then they do not deserve to be free.

Also, yes the French did step in and pretty much win the Revolution for us but the French goal was not their belief in liberty (the French absolute monarchy at the time was far less free than the British limited monarchy we fought against), it was more a desire to destroy the British Empire. American independence, to the French, was a means to an end.

They want our support. Let’s give it to them.

After all, didn’t the French help us in our great time of need? If the French hadn’t stepped in we’d all be eating Crimpets and drinking Tea, and saying phrases like “bloody hell.”

It was the U.S. who introduced fascism to Iran when the U.S. government used an unprovoked terrorist campaign against the Iranian government to overthrow the parliament and install a ruthless dictator.

The Iranian revolution that introduced a theocracy essentially entailed replacing the U.S. backed fascist dictatorship with a religious one. Iranians view the U.S., like the French view the Germans… If, in 1950, the West German chancellor had started voicing support for a French political movement, what affect would it have on that movement? According to Eric, it would have helped it.

And incidentally, I like the way he claims that Jimmy Carter behaved shamefully, while conveniently forgetting the fact that the Khmer Rouge were U.S. allies because they were involved in a cold war with the Vietnamese, a war that the anti-communists that Eric has such a raging hard-on for supported.

And I like how he calls George Bush a foreign policy genius. Notice that the moron who is desperate to end Iranian ithreats to Israel makes no mention of George Bush’s killing of the State department negotiations with Iran, where Iran was asking what it would take to placate the U.S. Oh no! The moment that the little Fuehrer-wannabe from Crawford found out that there were negotiations that might upset his desire for military confrontation, he killed it. Eric reminds me of those Roman lickpittles who would prate on about Calligula’s victory over the sea or Nero’s strategic genius.

It’s comical how well george Bush played Eric for a patsy. He’s sitting in his ranch, set for life, laughing, while Eric is doomed to live a life of comparative poverty, shivering on street corners collecting signatures for petitions, thanks to the national-socialist state Bush set up. And Eric’s thanking Bush! It’s like some poor brainwashed north Korean peasant thanking the dear leader for flooding his farmland!

Truly pathetic.

They can’t. A mealy-mouthed toothless House Resolution won’t do squat.

But all the individual Americans who have been setting up proxies to help the Iranians on the ground continue access to the blocked internet sites, on the other hand, are doing quite a lot.

This idiotic, toothless resolution plays right into the hands of the Ayatollahs. Now they can run on state TV and have some hard evidence when they blame the demonstrations on the “Zionist, British, American Great Satan cowboys”.

Of course I’m sure you were hoping against hope, along with many neo-cons that the Iranian people would vote for Ahmadinejad so that you and your fellow fascists would have your war that you really want.

You don’t give a damn about freedom. All you want is your apocalyptic war.

Of course, the Congress did vote to back the Iranian freedom fighters yesterday. So, we are on the side of freedom.

But the “President” Obama has been tepid, and one so-called “libertarian” Congressman Ron Paul of Texas, actually sided with the Iranian Fascist regime.

But then again, why should we be surprised by Paul’s vote? After all he’s sided with just about every Fascist Dictator around the globe, including Chavez, Castro, Vietnamese Communists and Lebanon’s Hezbollah.

After all, would we be seeing what’s going on today in Iran, if Saddam Hussein hadn’t been toppled as leader of Iraq?

Hell no! The Iranian Mullhas could still claim that they needed to be in charge to counter Saddam.

It’s beginning to look like George W. Bush may get his moment in history. He may go down as the most brillant foreign policy President since Reagan.

This will go down in history for decades to come, centuries perhaps.

And we are on the losing end of it, officially standing on the side of fascism over freedom.

It’s a very shameful moment for the United States of America. Almost as bad as when Jimmy Carter stood by and did nothing as 2 million Cambodians were slaughtered by Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge.
