Iranian Protests

.

..We should not be so fast to condemn Iran -.- I remember the RNC in NYC and how peaceful law abiding citizens were rounded up and incarceration on a pier without sanitary facilities...WHO THROWS THE FIRST STONE ?.?.?

..A woman named NADA died....Poking an animal with a stick does not promote peace...refusal to talk does not lead to open discussions...

..I do not think a democracy can be built from the outside - but must be from within the country. History shows how revolutions have been fueled by outsiders - BUT always carried out from within.

..Khamenei fueled his electronically and banned all electronics to prevent his...The Shah fell through use of CD's, Tapes. all now banned

.

..A Woman Named NADA Died...She can not be brought back to life......How many eyes were opened with her death

Careful engagement

The west needs to be careful when it engages with Iran in the near future over the nuclear issue. Desire for stability at home could see Ahmadinejad make some concessions (in order to avoid economic sanctions, for example). This could present a useful opportunity if handled correctly. See www.asiachroniclenews.com for some good articles on this.
