http://statenews.com Iranian citizens protesting presidential election results in their country are hoping they will be heard by a government thousands of miles away and inspire change in Iran. Local Iranians and Iranian graduate students from universities — including MSU — met Thursday at the Capitol to fight for their voting rights and protest what they call “election fraud” in Iran. On June 12, Iranians cast their ballots, and the next day, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was re-elected as president to the country, defeating opponent Mir Hossein Mousavi. en-us Gryphon 2.2.3b-tsn (woodward)/Foundry5 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 22:47:31 -0400 webmaster@statenews.com http://statenews.com/index.php/comment/view/41012 Go Iran and all, but dont you think we should be worried about the minuscule amount of US citizens that vote?

Carl Levin, our very own senator, had numerous hearings in the Senate Armed Services committee fraudulently attributing the supply of Iraqi extremists’ arms to Iran. This occurred just last year and the year before. Now that we have a Democrat in power, the not so wide leadership figures they can try starting a war in Iran again (we orchestrated and funded the long bloody Iraqi-Persian War between 1980-1988). Operation Persian Exterm…I mean Freedom (sound familiar?) is not too far behind folks. You can’t teach these old dogs new tricks, but the owners (the public) can push their noses in the piles of crap they produce (propaganda).
