Thanks to the internet, the repressive hand of tyranny can no longer operate in darkness with impunity. Below is footage from the Iranian protests currently taking place. The media is being strictly controlled, so the only way for information to trickle out is through the internet. As the Iranian dictatorship turns its guns on students, women, and protesters of all varieties, Obama continues to turn a deaf ear to the cries for help. People are dying in the streets supporting the cause of freedom, the right to choose their own government, which are rights that we Americans take for granted. The President in the meantime said that he would try not to meddle in Iranian affairs, only going as far as politely asking for the Iranian government to stop its “unjust” actions… Obama does not want to do anything to agitate the Iranian regime, forgetting that all that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
America must do something.
Caution: the images below contain raw footage of violence.
I added the song We’re Not Gonna Take It by Twisted Sister in honor of the protests.
