"are by no means shocking or beyond the norm when undemocratic regimes dispatch men in black to clear the streets." - Haaretz (Hartman)

"The tired "the world is watching" refrain has been heard for decades, and only in a handful of instances has it slowed the hand of tyranny. Further, the repeated refrains that it will cost the Islamic Republic "legitimacy" in the eyes of their people and the international community seem a bit empty, almost implying that the mullah state was legitimate to begin with." - Haaretz (Hartman)

This article is nothing but an exercise in subliminal messaging. Shame on Haaretz for publishing such a vulgarity.
Twitter and YouTube will make life tougher for ALL oppressive regimes, including you-know-whose. |
