Ayatollah Ali Khamenei threatening protestors in Iran

Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei sternly warned, aka threatened the of a crackdown if Iranian protesters continue days of massive street rallies, escalating the government’s showdown with demonstrators demanding a new presidential election. According to the AP, even with Obama’s tepid response to the protestors, even praising the Supreme Leader at one point, Khamenei wasn’t impressed:

Saying Obama’s statements contradicted the president’s stated goal of opening dialogue with Iran and the conciliatory tone of other recent American messages.

“The U.S. president said ‘We were waiting for a day like this to see people on the street,’” Khamenei said. “They write to us and say they respect the Islamic Republic and then they make comments like this … which one should we believe?

    Obama fell into the Iranisn uprising and has not been forceful enough supporting the people. His insistance on talking to the dictators of the world is a serious mistake.
