Jerusalem Post: “6 Mousavi supporters reportedly hanged.”

Politics ends at the water’s edge, so I am not criticizing President Obama for his silence for the first 10 days regarding the attempt to rebel against the Iranian election. I am sure he has his reasons.

I do ask for an explanation.

The Jerusalem Post report is disturbing, although it did note: “Speaking after Iran’s top legislative body upheld the election victory of incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, sources in Iran told this reporter in a telephone interview that the hangings took place in the holy city of Mashhad on Monday. There was no independent confirmation of the report.”

I do blame Obama for what is happening in Iran. The fact is, he is more of a Muslim than an American. His actions (or inaction) speaks as loud as his words (or lack of them).
