CRIES FOR "WHISKEY, SEX, RAP MUSIC" WON'T OVERTHROW ANY GOVERNMENT
The Iranian student protests are empty, not a thought in a trainload
A bunch of kids going to college on their parents dime want "freedom". Big Deal.
Just read some of their blogs and you'll see that they have absolutely nothing underlying their complaints other than they want freedom. They don't have a clue about what freedom is, what it entails for them, and what they want exactly. Whiskey, sex, music ain't no revolution. They better go back and check Jefferson, Paine, Madison, Hamilton, Locke, Hugo, and a ton of others before they can be successful.
Freedom doesn't mean having sex with dogs, staying drunk for the rest of your life, killing anybody you feel like killing and so on. These are Muslim kids who aren't about to dump their religion. But until they get a handle on a Muslim Democracy, they have nothing.
No revolution anywhere has succeeded because people wanted "freedom". They wanted Communism a specific goal; they wanted to kill their leadership, another specific goal, and so on. The French largely failed because the urge to kill Louie spread to lots of little Louies so the result was Napoleon. The American Revolution is misnamed. We had a Rebellion. A Rebellion against a distant power who lost the ability to govern. Revolutions are "revolts" against domestic government and it's my understanding from limited reading that no true revolution has ever succeeded other than the Communist Revolution in Tsarist Russia.
These demonstrations in Iran by college students without a clue of what kind of government they want, are just demonstrations. They have no plan for any legislature, court system, or anything else. They are a joke to everybody but the people who blog and read blogs. They have no support outside of the classrooms and no leadership anywhere.
