Are any major governments saying anything official about this? Most people are lurking because politics is confusing and frustrating. I am too, but I just wanted to ask about official statements. Otherwise, it would just be, "Well, why isn't Obama saying anything when we're in Iraq and Afghanistan trying to spread democracy? These Bahraini people are trying to spread democracy and being murdered for it. Where's the support now?"

You need a bigger warning than that. That is so incredibly graphic. Jesus. We've already won the lottery by being born in this part of the world.

I never once said I agree with it. The idea that you read what I posted as anything other than an unbiased statement is concerning.

The text under his unername makes so much sense now.

It just occurred to me that these protests would certainly have taken down Saddam Hussein by now, had the US not invaded.

It makes the loss of trillions of dollars and several hundred lives that much more appalling, knowing that with a little historical foresight we could have let the Iraqi people pursue their own freedom (likely with far less bloodshed and probably a more stable, less corrupt end result).

Yes, if you can neatly shoehorn that situation into this one, that would be correct. You have to consider what started these waves of protests. Then the cable leaks before that? What started those? The cables would have definitely been different if there were no invasions. What if the US never to the mideast in such an intrusive manner? Then what?

Secretary Clinton condemning Iran for its hypocrisy. That's rich.
