Afterthoughts on Iran - A "Green Revolution?"




Question #1:

Considering the amoun
t of attention the riots and protests in Iran have gotten from the mass media in the United States (not to mention outright support), do you feel slighted in that this same coverage and support by the mass media has remained unavailable to protests and riots that have occurred in the United States (example: the outcry for justice with regard to the Oscar Grant murder case)?



Question #2:


How can one s
upport a genuine revolution of and by the people particular to the state, while maintaining a strong opposition to any imperial puppeteering that may be going on in the background? Does 5% of "bad" in a crowd make the other 95% bad as well?

Peace.
