February 11 in Tehran: What Will President Obama Do?

On February 11, the anniversary of the revolution against the Shah, the Iranian masses will again take to the streets of Tehran, protesting against the savage totalitarian regime of Ahmadinejad. The tension is high following the executions of dissidents and after today's instructions from Ahmadinejad to produce twenty percent enriched uranium fuel.

And when there is tension on the streets of Tehran, what are you going to do? The answer is obvious: Blame Israel and threaten its destruction.

"Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ali Khamenei stated on Sunday that the will of God is set for an end to the oppression in the region and the defeat of the hegemonic powers.

The Supreme Leader made the remarks in a meeting with Ramadan Abdullah, the secretary general of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement.

Israel is going downhill toward decline and fall and God willing its obliteration is certain, the Leader noted."

According to U.S. Secretary of Defense Gates, it's not too late to impose additional sanctions against Iran. Yeah, sure, let's fix another date for compliance and see what effect that has on Ahmadinejad and his Revolutionary Guard. And even if sanctions are imposed, do you think for one moment that the Chinese won't cut a deal to allow the Revolutionary Guard to circumvent the restrictions?

So what's it gonna be in another four days when the protesters chant: "Obama, are you with us or against us?"

Most likely just another vote of "present".
