The United States has and will support anyone seeking the inalienable right to freedom and self determination.

What I’d do to back it up? Right now it’s up to the people of Iran, arms and technical support for certain.

The outcome is up to the people of Iran.

Parsing the middle to keep dialogue open with evil men when others are dying for freedom is wrong.

I assume that first sentence would be your statement as president.

Arms and technical support when? Tomorrow? Logistics?

“The outcome is up to the people of Iran.” That’s pretty much what Obama said, isn’t it?

And yeah, we’ve always stood up for “anyone seeking the inalienable right to freedom and self determination”. Except for when those people were fighting one of “our” dictators, like, oh, I don’t know, Saddam when he was our butt-buddy?

If I were on the streets of Iran right now I’d be hoping for no bold statements from the United States of Amnesia.
