Andrew G. Bostom "In contrast to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's rather tepid statement that the "US stands with the international community" in calling "for a government that respects the human rights and freedom of all those living in Iran," Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini offered these morally clear, powerful words about the applicable Western standards of freedom and justice:"...

Michael Ledeen: Time to Get Real in Iran and Syria "This is the right policy for all the good reasons::
–Strategic: Iran is our major enemy and the leading killer of our people;"And so? What the hell are we waiting for? And why is there not a single candidate who will give voice to it?"
Moral: Iran visits unspeakable horrors on its own people and wants to export this system worldwide;
–Regional: there is no hope for peace in the Middle East so long as this regime remains in power.
