    Say what.....the Iranian people actually think and say their government is supporting Hezbollah and the al Houthis? Even though the Eyeatoldyaso.....says they would never do such a thing like support terrorists.

    That ought to piss off our leftists and Anti Americans. But don't worry those Leftists and Anti Americans will say they got that from the US Media.

    You know they can't have the Iranian common people making them look bad and like they don't have a clue as to what they are talking about.

    How long before the Leftness and their Anti American allies start dumping on the average Iranian people?

    Right with Eversharp.... Obama refused to even verbally support the "Green Revolution" but did all he could including funding, training and supplying weapons to the Muslim Brotherhood and al Qaeda to overthrow the governments of Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Syria. Obama watched the murders of the citizens of Iran on a daily basis. Obama discounted the lives of humans for his Iranian Deal and his now exposed failed legacy.

    Iran is our enemy. Weaken them in any possible way, especially when they are carrying the ball for you.

    Maybe instead of flying an aircraft full of cash for the mullah regime like Obama did, fly an aircraft full of walky talkys, ham radios, weapons, and cash to the protesters and let them keep carrying the ball. They might just gain their freedom.

    How is the Guardian article you link one-sided? It seems like a fairly neutral reporting of the facts as known to me, not favouring anyone involved.

    It seems to me that you want one-sided reported, entirely against the Iranian government regardless of the facts or circumstances. The protesters have plenty of valid points and hopefully they achieve some positive change in Iran but media (especially Western media) shouldn’t be taking sides either way.

    Now why would Obama want to invade Iran when he was already kowtowing to the Ayatollahs and bending over to allow them to virtually sodomize him politically?

    I didn't claim that the Guardian was biased in their news releases. I was referring to the likes of MSNBC, CNN, WaPo, NY Times, CBS, etc.... Why would they refuse to announce the unrest and protests for more than two days until they were forced to begin releasing the news of the rioting?

    Your OP was based on a link to an article that said exactly that though. I presumed you’d read it. Maybe if the article was wrong about the Guardian being biased, it could be wrong about its other claims too.

    If you were referring to entirely different alleged bias, shouldn’t you have linked some examples of that rather than an accusation you apparently don’t support?

    How does this prove your case against against the media? The article notes what government mouthpieces are saying. So who believes them? I want to hear what the regime is saying so I can get an idea of what they're thinking.

    It strikes me you have an agenda you're trying to serve here with some rather problematic proof.

    BTW, I happen to think the media are corrupt but for different reasons than you.

    Huh? How do you get Margot2 opposes regime change?
    There seem to be divides between educated and uneducated, urban an rural, young and old, religious and more secular Iranians with the educated, urban, younger, and more secular opposing the mullahs.

    I find it ironic the least educated, older, religious, and rural Americans are the most upset about the Iranian regime. As far as I can tell, the more angry among us are worked up because of religious differences. Hmmm.
    Yeah, I hear the regime is also cutting taxes for the richest 1% of Iranians. :cheerleader:

    P.S. I can only hope the Iranian people can somehow overcome the religious nutballs turned murderous thugs and kleptocrats.

    You came up with this absurd claim all by yourself? (I don't see a source.)

    Me too.. and we need to be cautious.. I don't want a ground war in Iran or to see a few million Iranians die because the US is impatient with the crackpots.

    The Iranian people didn't ask permission from anyone. They stripped the ball and are running with it. Give them all possible support to score.

    OMG. You even edited this nonsense. [Last edited: Today at 4:25 AM]

    So, then, when you catch your breath, could you give us some numbers on how many "Left Democrats" walk among us? Are "radical Democrat Leftists" the same as "Left Democrats" or are these people another dark force we should worry about?

    You give me the impression you're leading a religious crusade against Muslims and frankly you'd be quite content with a dictatorial regime in Iran if it were Christian. Am I wrong?

    I think we're getting snippets of the latest propaganda from the Angry Middle-Age Male Rightwing Religious Traditionalist Open Mouth Media Echo Chamber. Our Forum Friends are having their usual difficulty assembling their ranting into a coherent narrative.

    Can you name an Obama policy or action that the MSM did not give its full-throated non-qualified support to?
