he dont care about the dying children of hundreds each second ticking, why would he care about a woman shot dead in iran?

I agree 100% The people in Iran do not want us involved. They want this to go down in history as their fight for freedom.. not ours. The president has done the right thing by respecting their wishes and by keeping us safe by not jumping into another war head first at a time when we clearly have enough on our plate as it is.

YOU AND elspoko ARE shit asses

lol at AP they can't verify. who needs MSM nowadays... when you can get the news in real time from the people of Iran not from any bipartisaan media left or right. they are all the same.

the wikipedia entry of neda soltan is even more outrageous...

[elspoko]

Yeah, me and a few of my associates have been looking at the video. It seems a bit to staged.

In contrast to other videos that similar events happened, this seems a bit to calm.

We don't know Iran did because they block all news coming out of he country. Yea but Bush didn't have the protesters shot and told them it would be bloodshed if they protested.Lets be honest instead of PC. Its definitely not the same in Middle East. They will kill you if you peacefully protest.

the neda video is a hoax if u look carefully

These people are childern of the exiles who fled after the revolution they'll always protest against the theocrats no matter what, the post-election crisis just gives them a good excuse.

Under Cheney/Bush would agree with that statement...However, things have changed in America. The oil industry does not have their top spokesman as VP (Cheney was actually President)

I think the focus on reform in Iran now is clearly for the Iranian People. If such reform takes place then MAYBE Obama will have a better chance at negotiations and Iran can become part of the International community again...That is all the Iranian People I have talked to want.

Im ready to see what kids can do running the world. It has to be better than what adults choose to do. Two seconds after a kid gets mad at another they are back to playing with one another. An adult gets pist off- shoot the other before they shoot you! NO coming back from that! People dont know how to have a good ol knock down drag out these days. No wonder all the worldly disasters happen. What do we expect!!!? God bless you Neda!
