Bleg - Direct Action

THE IRANIANS CANNOT MARCH, BUT EVERYONE ELSE CAN

I am appalled that there are just 3,900+ visits to this Neda site.

We don't need more government action. Sanctions. Punishments. Diplomatic statements. Doesn't it seem obvious that it is the voices of the peoples of the world who DEMAND peace, who want their governments to get out of the way, that need to find each other, NOW.
Please send me or post in the comments all the websites that are set-up for her or to show the strength of the international sympathy.

I can spend some free time visiting all these - and so can you!

SANCTIONS? CONSEQUENCES? PSHAW!

When we had a Stalinist Soviet Republic, every nuclear missile deployment causes hundreds of thousands to take to the streets to stop the madness.

I continue to fail to see why more people aren't agitated to see the possible stakes in this showdown. We are looking at, potentially, another openly-Stalinist regime, perhaps worse, because it is run by a religious authority.

This will color politics of the next generation and the next, at least. Where are those whose lives are, once again, threatened so directly by the 'nuclear umbrella'? Those people who grew up during the Reagan darkness, who were happily unavailed of the precipice de mudo by their childhood? History is calling to them, right?
