Problem of Iran May Be Solved By People-Power!

A peace that would fill me with optimism, were I not sure it was complete bunk.

My reaction to the article? I wish. Or rather, I previously wished. I previously wished that the people of Iran would rise up and finally take power from the mad mullahs and turn Iran into what they want it to be, and what it should be -- an economically robust, somewhat progressive democratic state.

It's not going to happen. At least it's not going to happen before the maniacs get the bomb, and we can't wait that long.

Note one of the writers is a member of some peacenik outfit, and the other is a member of some Iranian human-rights-watch organization. I think they're so optimistic about "people-power" because, well, they're on the left, and lefties like to speak in such absurdities, and also because they're trying to dissuade Bush of the need for a military strike.

I wish they were right. But they're not.

Nevertheless, worth reading, because it does provide concrete examples of Iranian resistance to and antipathy towards the tyranny of the Shari'a fascists.

All Praise Be To Allah. (APBTA)
