The whole world is watching...

Iran is one of three things that I can think of (*) that brings all Americans together. Rich or poor, black or white, left-wing or right - one thing we all agree on is that the present government in Tehran is a bunch of loonies. From public executions for minor offenses to denial of the Holocaust; from Dark Ages mentality about human rights to Nukes for Nutcases; Iran is only rivaled by North Korea as the country most in need of a regime-change. . Then came the blatantly rigged elections. A spark that kindled a bonfire of pent-up frustration at a crumbled economy (despite being rich in oil) and at being isolated from the rest of the world for 30 years by Asinine Ayatollahs. The rich, the educated, and the skilled have all left, and they now help fan the flames of protest worldwide. . So today the whole country, and indeed the whole world (including the Moslem nations) holds its collective breath as Iranian citizens risk their lives - again - in protest of an oppressive tyranny. Frankly, the odds are stacked against them. But that was true when Uncle Sam's puppet, the Shah, was on the throne. There's a movement underway to petition Google to run the above image for one day on its homepage. Find the website, and help play a small part in the protests. You can make a difference. . (*) : Oh yeah, the other two things that bring all Americans together : getting rid of Photo Radar and destroying all Barry Manilow albums.
