When Revolutions Fail

Democracy is not inevitable

"While the world watches and prays for the people undergoing revolution in the Middle East - in Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and other places - let's not forget the true potential of these civic uprisings. It is not inevitable that they end in freedom/democracy."

'sheer delight' my butt

by shushtari on

the only delight was on the faces of the thieves in london who were orchestrating this crap.

I just finished a book where there's a ton of evidence that the PLO was training the mullahs and their murderers as far back as 1975!!

an idiot like khomeini did not half the brains required to overtake such a powerful country.

 

I just wonder why the shah did not expose him for what he was- an illiterate, lying, sack of you know what- that did not give a hoot about iran or iranians--- all the non-sense propaganda was left unanswered
