George Soros just said that he doesn't see the current Iranian regime in power a year from now. You can bank on that if he said it. That's actually code for: "The current Iranian regime will not be in power a year from now."

Wonder what he knows that we don't. Obama has done nothing but be at bent knee while Iran drops trou in front of him.

Well, we both know how influental he is. Usually when he makes statements like that, he has an "in" on the subject. I usually take his word for it when he does that shit. He was on the GPS with Fareed Zakaria (CNN) when he said that. Talk about two people the world can just do without.

(Reuters) - Bahrain Grand Prix organizers canceled the opening race of the Formula One season Monday due to unrest in the country.

"The Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) today announced that the Kingdom of Bahrain would withdraw from hosting this year's F1 Grand Prix race so that the country can focus on its process of national dialogue," they said.

That video is precisely why we have the second amendment.

those protesters have some serious balls. you have to respect people that aren't afraid to die.
or you could just dimiss them as stupid...
they are making history over there while we just watch comfortably behind a pc , difficult to understand the totality of whatever it is they have a fight for.
Something about the Suni's being mistreated there.

Don't start no shit, won't be no shit!!!

That cracking noise, bullets flying past, is something you never forget. I remember that sound from being in the Marines, luckily only when pulling duty in the butts.

Two Libyan pilots defected today to Malta after refusing orders to bomb protesters and there are rumors that Quadaffi is fleeing to Venezuela. Good times!
