"The President yesterday denounced the "extent of the fraud" and the "shocking" and "brutal" response of the Iranian regime to public demonstrations in Tehran these past four days. "These elections are an atrocity," he said. "If [Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad had made such progress since the last elections, if he won two-thirds of the vote, why such violence?" The statement named the regime as the cause of the outrage in Iran and, without meddling or picking favorites, stood up for Iranian democracy."
No, those words were not spoken by President Obama but France's President Nicolas Sarkozy. "The French are hardly known for their idealistic foreign policy and moral fortitude. Then again many global roles are reversing in the era of Obama."
For the complete text of the opinion expressed by the "Wall Street Journal," go to Obama's Iran Abdication.
