Huge numbers of Mexicans are rallying to a spirited campaign [to mark their votes for Nulo (no one) ]. They want to demonstrate that they think almost all their politicians are in it for themselves, and not the people. Now there's a campaign I could sink my teeth into - as I listen to the tiresome slogans and half-truths of the biased politicians of all parties insulting our intelligence.
For many years Israel has kept trying to tell the U.S. and others that Iran is by far the greatest threat to peace and stability in the middle east. Maybe that message will finally sink in.
The horror of a totalitarian government that doesn't really care about its own people is horrid to watch when it is challenged. But, if there is any good in this (and I believe the long-term seeds of the demise of this thugocracy have been planted), it is that the Iranian "sweet, kindly, serene, austere, intelligent, high-minded followers of God" have been unmasked. Anyone wish to directly combine religion and government in this country? The nice thing about being a super-religious fanatic with power, is that you can commit the most filthy, barbaric, sadistic, evil crimes righteously and with clear conscience.
