Michael Totten On Iran
Michael Totten as usual has very good sources. Let us start with the fact that in the above video a phalanx of police is retreating before a mob. Then Michael gives this excerpt from Shah of Shahs. Now the most important moment, the moment that will determine the fate of the country, the Shah, and the revolution, is the moment when one policeman walks from his post toward one man on the edge of the crowd, raises his voice, and orders the man to go home. The policeman and the man on the edge of the crowd are ordinary, anonymous people, but their meeting has historic significance.The question is, will this nothing left to lose attitude be sustainable? Will the boat rock far enough to tip over? So far the regime has been able to contain these eruptions. It all depends on the balance of fear. And chaos. In chaos small perturbations can have big effects. Well you know Michael has way more. Visit him. And drop him a buck or two.
