MSNBC : Tehran Students Protest; Here We Go Again?

Maybe it's me but the past two weeks feel like deja vu all over again (Yogi).

Once again we see the huge chasm between cultures. Once again hostages are taken at a convenient time. Once again hostages are paraded in front of the world's media offering tailored statements at gunpoint. Now once again we hear Iranian student protesters are massing and marching ...

I believe the Mullah's and the Revolutionary Guard realize their backs are up against the wall and are doing all they can to call the West's bluffs. They want to see if anyone other than George Bush has the nerve to call their bluff. If the international community had any integrity it would unite around Britain and demand the release of the hostages. However, something is missing this Sunday. I see no rallies, no marches, nothing from the West standing up to this strategically selected action. Instead in the U.S. talking heads focus on Gonzales and other worthless, partisan crap that will go no where.

It's pretty sad out there. The only good that will come of it is that the left will self-destruct as they always do and clear the way for Bush to go out on a high and Giuliani to come in and kick some serious ass.

TEHRAN, Iran - About 200 students threw rocks and firecrackers at the British Embassy on Sunday, calling for the expulsion of the country’s ambassador because of the standoff over Iran’s capture of 15 British sailors and marines.
