US Response Betrays Obama's Promised Principles
Stephen F. Hayes, The Weekly Standard | June 24, 2009
Obama's caution vis-à-vis Iran betrays the promises he made in Berlin during his election campaign. ++ The excuse that his only choice is between feeding views that America is "meddling" or virtual silence is unfounded. ++ He should seek a global statement which condemns the violence and supports the protesters, uniting the diverse nations already speaking out. ++ Obama, you spoke of supporting those "who have marched and bled for democracy" but where is your leadership in the moment of truth?
