Thoughts on Iran

June 18, 2009

I think it’s fair to say that the western media blitz is creating a lot of false hope for Iranians. CNN, BBC, and the other major news outlets are heavily covering these protests, with solid reaosing of course; what’s problematic is that the United States is in no position to intervene, and whilst we continue broadcast from Iran (as much as we can at least; the Iranian government has put overbearing restrictions on international coverage), we are unknowlingly, or knowingly leading many of these protesters on. Mousavi and co. have all the reason to be furious, and my blessings to the people of Iran. Though the opposition isn’t quite our idea of opposing politics (Mousavi is one of the forefathers of the Republic, and with a victory, the operations aren’t going to change, just the leader will), this is an internal matter that must not be obstructed. Good-luck to you all.
