This picture nearly made me cry.
These women are fighting for freedom and peace, while the world discusses cutting temperatures by 2 degrees in their climate controlled rooms.
But what do I expect?
Why would I expect them to stand against oppression when that's what they want themselves-- the oppression of all people through taxation and excessive regulation?
Iranians must determine their own destiny. Our meddling will only play into the hard liners hand. Wake-up to reality, years of aggressive war Iraq has not turned the hearts of the people to love the USA and it never will. Supporting the rights of other nations' citizens to determine their own fate is the only approach that will make our world safer.
The people of Iran are our friends, their leaders are evil. I am glad our president is not strengthening the hand of the oppressors.
