If you're going to call this post "Anti-American", don't even bother commenting, onegaishimasu
I haven't said anything about it because everyone else has but I am in complete support of the Iranian people.

Shame on you, America, for not doing the same thing when Bush stole the election twice. This kind of demonstration is what "freedom" looks like. And isn't it ironic that it's happening in one of the countries that's a member of the "axis of evil". Seriously, even though Bush is gone, I will never understand why we were so silent.

I hope everything is resolved peacefully in Iran and that whatever happens teaches the world that the people will always have more power than governments.

The workers joined the students in the Bush protests becasue Bush was anti union (my typing is gonna suck because I am on a Japanese keyboard. Like, I can`t find some puncuation because of it).

I agree that revolutions are not so easy and that there has to be a strong, national movement, but what I`m saying is that Americans are too comfortable to really challenge the way of life they know.

And honestly, I have a hard time in believingt that peaceful protests work. I think that the only way to have a revolution in some countries (not all) is by shedding blood. It`s sad but true. You`ll probably strongly disagree with me but that`s why I believe that Americans should always have the right to bear arms.
