Pretty Big News!
Seems serious to me. Apparently the newly "elected" leader of Iran was one of the captors of American Embassy personnel way back when (think Jimmy Carter & Ronald Reagan). Chrenkoff takes a good hard look at the allegations. These pictures pretty much convince me. Powerline asks precisely the right question:
I realize these things are very complicated, and I do not pretend to be an expert -- but the man is a criminal in American eyes and is at least partially responsible for one of the greatest blots ever on our nation. Last time there was a criminal Head of State (Noriega) we went and got him.
His election is a direct "in your face" to the United States. This will also represent a huge test for the United Nations, which I am fairly certain they will fail, leaving us once again having to accept defeat or appear rogue.
Pray for our leaders right now -- They really need it.
What now?
