  North Korea: Obama's foreign policy actions, or lack there of, are clear examples that he is naive and did not have the necessary experience to be president of the U.S.A. Because of his liberal and new or different policies, it is questionable if he will learn from history or his mistakes, that have and will happen.

  Mr. Huckabee, I appreciate your compassion for the 'PEOPLE' of Iran.
  Your clear views on the issues of importance to the American People is greatly appreciated! So much so that my BFF and I have started a group supporting you for President in 2012! We've only just begun however, once I'm out of the hospital...you can be sure that it will be in full force. If you'd like to take a look at what we've done so far, go to: www.SGP.com and look for the group: Huckabee in 2012
  Liz and I are humbled to be a part of this innitiative to get YOU out there and 'advertising' YOU as OUR BEST HOPE! God Bless you and yours~

  In Him,

  I agree with you; but also believe that we Americans had better "hit the streets" in great numbers or we will be in the same boat...perhaps sooner than we all think.

  As always, the governor sets just the right tone. My, how different things would be right now if Huck were president.
  My heart breaks for the Iranian people and I will continue to pray for them.
  It seems to me that Obama is setting us up for something negative, though I'm just not sure from which direction it's going to come. I'm sure that's deliberate on his part. I can't help it, I just don't trust the guy based on everything I know about him, both before and after he became president.

  Going soft on Ahmadinejad & his oppressive regime with only being "appalled" by "tough" actions taken against protestors & condemning such a response is inadequate & bogus. If we take a non-participatory role then this uprising will just be Obama's Tianamen Square moment where the People will get crushed under government tanks & oppressed for another generation. Opposition leaders need to go into exile & be need to not tell Iran what to do, but stand by & assist the opposition leaders in the country that care more about individual freedoms in Iran to be safe & heard. Just as Benazir Bhutto was able to go into exile but speak out for her Pakistani supporters from a distance in Dubai.
  An opposition leader with a vision & a plan & clear goals for his nation can keep the dream of a free Iran alive in the hearts of the people wanting democracy.
  Instead, we sit back while the government makes disenters "disappear" in government vehicles never to be seen or heard from again & continue their nuclear program with hostile intent expressed many times that we should not continue to take lightly & shrug it off as simply hate speech or propoganda.

  True, the candidates do matter (I never said that the candidates do not matter), but that did not stop Reagan from supporting the Russian people and the principles of democracy that were dynamically in play during his time when Gorbachev was their leader. The Russian people during the Cold War time were seeking a more democratic or representative government for Russia and after communism fell they ended electing Putin. Would we had wanted better, of course. But, we are better off with a less communist or totalitarian Russia today than the old Soviet Union. Keep in mind that Reagan supported the democratic movement even though many communist rulers were actively opposing us and clandestine conflicts were in play. Bush supported the Palestinian people having elections and then it was up to the Palestinians to choose. Bush supported democratic principles not Hamas. To their demise they chose poorly in choosing Hamas. We cannot control every aspect or person of a democratic movement but we can support the principles and people of a nation that is seeking freedom without having to bless or endorse the individual candidate or use force. It is about promoting democracy and freedom globally not controlling them globally. It is about America verbally supporting people and their rights to representation and not about America being a politically correct silent nation or, on the other side of the spectrum, a police nation for democracy. Gov. Huckabee has recently expressed and explained how the Iranian people are not the enemy. An Iran that can choose its leaders in a democratic way is far better for us in the long run than an Iran that is totalitarian and run by religious mullahs that do the choosing for the people. It is the Iranian regime that was to blame for the 241 dead marines not the Iranian people in general. A more democratic or representative Iran could eventually rid themselves of Ahmadinejads, Mullahs, and Mousavis if the Iranian people as a whole do not want to go into conflict with us, which as of today in general they do not. Obviously, they do not want the fanatical, incompetent, anti-American Ahmadinejad who has consistently expressed death to America and Israel. The 241 marines that died was a terrible, terrible tragedy. But we need to look at the big picture in promoting a more representative and stable Iran. The more democratic Iran is the more difficult it is going to be for the leaders of Iran to promote proxy terrorist groups like Hamas and Hezbollah. The Iranian people want peace just as much as the Iraqi people wanted peace. Also, those 241 marines that died was in part the fault of our own leaders in Washington and the top leaders of the intelligence services that were at the time playing more politics than listening to their front line intelligence agents on the fields of the Middle East. Mousavi is not the ideal choice but this movement for more freedom is not about him. Mousavi is not the root of the problem or the answer to a less belligerent Iran. My blessings do not go to Mousavi, but to the Iranian people wanting freedom of choice and to the democratic principles that they represent at this time and for which they are dying. Reagan blessed the principles of democracy and the people of a nation that were on quest for democracy not Gorbachev. One needs to be able to distinguish this difference when promoting freedom globally. Reagan did it right, Obama did not.

  I wonder if rhe Iranians really want our support as we are always threatening to bomb them into the stone age. Sadly many years ago I swallowed this other story -- HOOK,LINE AND SINKER.
  Saddam Hussein was already responsible for enough atrocities. Unfortunately, the effect of this story being exposed as a lie was to discredit a lot of true reports.
  ON TO THE INCUBATORS...
  The day after Iraq invaded Kuwait, the Kuwaitis living in the US hired the public relations firm Hill and Knowlton - a job worth $1 million a month. This was the biggest ever contract in the history of public relations to improve the image of their corrupt, oil-rich regime.

  The story of how Iraqi troops, in the first days of the invasion, went into Al-Adan hospital, tore the sick babies from incubators and left them on the cold floor to die was graphically told to Congress on November 1990 before the crucial vote to send US troops (passed by about 5 votes).

  What the audience didn't know however was that the 15-year old girl who made the moving, tearful testimony was none other than Niyirah al-Sabah - daughter of the US Ambassador to Kuwait. She had allegedly worked as a volunteer in the maternity ward of the hospital. But nurses who live in the two story white building opposite the hospital in Kuwait City claimed that they had never seen the girl before in their life.

  The girl had been "trained" by Hill and Knowlton. The renowned international human rights group Amnesty International took out full-page newspaper spreads to publicise the babies incident. It had unwittingly (and not for the first time) transformed itself from a charity to a propaganda tool. Andrew Whitley of Middle East Watch described the story as a fabrication but it took months for the truth to come out. President Bush mentioned the incubator incident in five of his speeches and seven senators referred to them in speeches backing a pro-war resolution.

  Highly exaggerated reports of thousands of deaths were accepted uncritically, as the PR firm using Kuwaiti contacts inside the country smuggled 24 videotapes to a hungry, unquestioning and gullible mass media.

  UPI asked Hill and Knowlton if it now acknowledges the incubator story as a deception. "The company has nothing to say on this matter," media liaison Suzanne Laurita replied. When asked if such a deception would be considered part of the public relations business, she answered: "Please know again that this falls into the realm that the agency has no wish to confirm, deny or comment on."

  So should I support the Palestinians freedom in their electing a Hamas government? After all, the candidates don't matter, do they?

  I wonder if giving your blessing to the protests would matter especially since the candidate they supposedly support had overseen a terror campaign which on one day resulted in the horrific death of 241 American servicemen in Beirut.

  Maybe this explains President Obama's cautious approach to the Iranian protests.
  http://blogs.cqpolitics.com/spytalk/2009/06/mousavi-celebrated-in-iranian.html
  excerpts from the article:
  By Jeff Stein | June 22, 2009 7:45 )
  Mousavi, prime minister for most of the 1980s, personally selected his point man for the Beirut terror campaign, Ali Akbar Mohtashemi-pur, and dispatched him to Damascus as Iran's ambassador, according to former CIA and military officials.
  "We had a tap on the Iranian ambassador to Lebanon," retired Navy Admiral James "Ace" Lyons related by telephone Monday. In 1983 Lyons was deputy chief of Naval Operations, and deeply involved in the events in Lebanon.

  "The Iranian ambassador received instructions from the foreign minister to have various groups target U.S. personnel in Lebanon, but in particular to carry out a 'spectacular action' against the Marines," said Lyons.

  "He was prime minister," Lyons said of Mousavi, "so he didn't get down to the details at the lowest levels. "But he was in a principal position and had to be aware of what was going on."

  Lyons, sometimes called "the father" of the Navy SEALs' Red Cell counter-terror unit, also fingered Mousavi for the 1988 truck bombing of the U.S. Navy's Fleet Center in Naples, Italy, that killed five persons, including the first Navy woman to die in a terrorist attack.

  Bob Baer agrees that Mousawi, who has been celebrated in the West for sparking street demonstrations against the Teheran regime since he lost the elections, was directing the overall 1980s terror campaign.

  But Baer, a former CIA Middle East field officer whose exploits were dramatized in the George Clooney movie "Syriana," places Mousavi even closer to the Beirut bombings.

  "He dealt directly with Imad Mughniyah," who ran the Beirut terrorist campaign and was "the man largely held responsible for both attacks," Baer wrote in TIME over the weekend.

  "When Mousavi was Prime Minister, he oversaw an office that ran operatives abroad, from Lebanon to Kuwait to Iraq," Baer continued.

  Well said Gov. Huckabee.

  Obama lost a great opportunity to courageously support the Iranian people and the freedom of liberties that they seek. Todays speech was too little too late. Reagan would have quickly jumped at such an opportunity to support democracy as he did many times during his presidency. But, Obama is NO Reagan.

  Iraq has also contributed much to show that a Muslim Republic is possible in the middle of the Middle East. I'm sure that is not lost in the psyche of the Iranian people. So, Iraq is unwittingly and ironically helping our president in promoting freedom and democracy in the Persian Gulf Area. This reality from Obama who strongly opposed the Iraq War and even funds to our troops when they needed them the most, and who said that the surge would never work.

  Dear Mike,
  I am pleased by your consideration about the difference of Iranian people and state. I appriciate your sympathy with Iranians who are dieing in the streets of Iran for Democracy.
  Please consider that our government are despretely looking for some evidence to connect our movement to outside of Iran specially united state. at this moment, there are many reformists in Prisons under intensive turture to confess that they are connected to unite state, while they are really independent politicians fighting for democracy and freedom.
  please consider that your support may worsen the situation

  I think this is an interesting article by Newsmax regarding the Presidents lack of involvement in the Iranian crisis BUT he does not hesitate to speak up and meddle in the affairs of Israel. I heard on the news today that they were saying that when Sec of State Clinton was running for president she spoke up rather vociferously in defense of Israel and without hesitation that the U.S. would be quick to respond to any mention of a threat against them. So now, she has toned it down considerably and saying that there will be some sort of response. Orders from the headquarters I guess.

  Jewish Leader: Obama May Be 'Most Hostile President to Israel’
  Monday, June 22, 2009 11:53 AM

  By: Ronald Kessler
  President Barack Obama’s refusal to take a stand on protests in Iran stands in sharp contrast to demands he has made on Israel, Morton Klein, president of the Zionist Organization of America, says in a Newsmax interview.

  “I think he should take a strong stand to support the protesters in Iran who want to transform that society into one that promotes democracy and human rights,” Klein says. ”But while meddling in Israel’s affairs and making specific demands, he explicitly states he refuses to meddle in Iran’s policies and has said almost nothing.”

  Klein says leaders of Jewish organizations are rethinking their support of Obama in light of his attitude toward Israel.

  Based on the president’s speech in Cairo on June 4 and many of his foreign policy appointments, Klein thinks Obama “may become the most hostile president to Israel ever.”

  Once again, Obama shows his lack of understanding for the situation, lack of experience in dealing with oppressive dictators, lack of insight and foresight to lead the U.S. and the world in representing basic human rights.

  We do not need to be overtly interfering in this situation. However, to condone and legitimize the theocracy of Iran and dictatorship of North Korea like Obama has, is simply wrong. I'm glad Obama's PR team FINALLY decided to release some "stronger statements" regarding these situations, AFTER Iranians are being killed. However, Obama did not LEAD, he is merely following and reacting.

  I suppose Biden was right when he said Obama was going to be "tested" in the first 6 months. So far, he's not doing very well in these "tests." Governor Huckabee would have been a much better "test taker."

  Good call, Captain Obvious. Not only Lafayette, but Count Pulaski (Polish) and Baron von Stueben (Prussian) were noted foreign leaders who fought with the American revolutionary army. Both men made notable contributions to the war effort.

That is why we support the Iranian people. Please read "We are all Iranian" on the Huck's Army Blog.

  Thank you for enlightening those that might not have been aware of the difference between the people of Iran and their leadership that is oppressive and punishing. While I don't feel we should intercede and pay more attention to what is going on at home, we need to be aware of this conflict and offer prayers in support of the people that are striving to be free.

  Those that oppose our involvement seem to forget that our freedom was obtained by the sacrifice of many young lives and willing people that stood up to another country and declared 'no more'.

  We all want freedom and peace. There are just those that aren't willing to help obtain it and like to live on the backs of others that got it for them.

  Our veterans deserve all our support, respect and help. They are all hero's and someday I hope the Iranian people can look on these days and declare their hero's and celebrate their freedom from the current government and their policies.

  I could not agree more. Interesting point about how there were people in Tehran lighting candles after 9/11. I didn't know that and it is proof that the people of Iran are not our enemy. This is an opportunity... yes, an opportunity, for nations who hold freedom as a precious and fragile asset to stand behind others that do as well. President Obama wants to apply US Constitutional rights to prisoners of Guantanamo Bay but yet cant seem to find the spine to support others who are trying to EARN those same rights on their own. If he disagree's with Bush's way of "forcing freedom" in Iraq, he should use his "divine" gift of words to encourage Iranians to fight their own non-violent over throw and earn their own freedom.

  Lea Cox
  Okay, this is the Captain losing her temper for a moment.

  Governor Huckabee gave his very reasoned, courteous, and in my opinion wise view on the current crisis in Iran.

  This prompted from you a spew of badly spelled and syntactically flawed rage because anything less than adoring praise of your idolized leader is, in your perception, extreme virulent criticism.

  The only thing toxic on this post is YOUR RESPONSE. Nobody is "poising" the atmosphere here outside of your over-the-top rant. The mindset you show here carries the germ of the kind of oppression the Iranian people are fighting right now.

  Learn, please, to carry on civil discussion with those holding other opinions. If you want to see what that looks like, follow Governor Huckabee's public appearances for a while.

  06/22/2009 01:49 PM

  Respectfully, I must completely disagree with your logic Mr. Huckabee. But that's the great thing about America! Your solution has been tried in the past and has only led to a bad end every time. Unless we allow the people of Iran to fight their own fight without outside interference we are only asking for yet ANOTHER intervention disaster! WHY, oh WHY!, are some Americans so ARROGANT as to think that other people cannot fend for themselves? If the French or Spanish had come to our country in the late 1700s interjecting their views upon our Founding Fathers, they would have been sent back on the next ship, maybe even shot on sight!

  This IS the Iranian PEOPLES' fight! They KNOW that all Americans are watching these events and are participating in ways you, respectfully, have no idea we CAN help! In the past week I have set up proxies to allow the oppressed people of Iran to access the internet. I have sat here without sleep for 2 days, then take a nap and come back and help some more. THIS is the grass-roots talking to you. The ones who VOTE! Just as the younger generation of Iranians know how change will have to be made, so do we. We are Tired As Hell of POLITICIANS thinking they are the only ones who know what people want! You inevitably get it wrong 99% of the time!

  So I say Good Work President Obama! Not since Robert F. Kennedy have I heard such intelligent discourse by a political figure, and it is refreshing - no - INSPIRING - to see how our President is sticking to his guns, without PULLING one! Until the United States stops thinking they are "Big Brother" to the world we are only going to swim in the quagmire as we have in the past! I'm sorry, but you are part of the old guard, with old, outdated ideas and ideology. Please - if you want to support the Iranian people in their time of struggle, sign up for a Twitter account and actually LISTEN to them! One thing it is hard for a politician to do...listen! Until the old guard learns that we don't live in the same world we did 30-5- years ago, and that the tactics of those eras will not work today, you are all doomed to failure and defeat!

  I hope I have gotten my point across without offending you. It's just that I am very passionate when it comes to "the few" telling "the many" what we should do! YOU represent US, and WE are supporting these people with our words and prayers, and they appreciate it. You'd know that if you would just...LISTEN!

  God Bless You, America, and the people of Iran!

  I am disappointed that republicans feel they have to use this occasion when people are being killed and make a political statement about the president.You could have just spoken your piece and not mentioned him.
  He was diplomatic and forceful in his own way without threatening Iranians as Bush would have done.
  You GOP people just do not get it do you? Reason you lost the elections.Americans want peace all over, no warmongering and paranoia.
  Let's hear support for the president speech in Cairo which emboldened the Iranians to fight.
  Or many other overture to Islamic to bring peace.
  Americans do not like the republican ideologies of imperialism and bring democracy by war and manipulation.That is what your party has been doing for the past 50 years. Today's problem in Iran are part of American involvement with that nation in the past. You have yourself to blame. Notice if you mix religion, oil and extremism as we see in some neocon followers you have a disaster coming.Brewing now in America.
  Do the country a favor and reduce the toxic exchanges and try to control those extremes, then we can rest and have a good party alternative, now you have little you can show for that is acceptable.

  This whole issue with Iran is very touchy to say the least. To me, it's very hard to know what the right move would be. After listening to your video blog, I think reaching out to the Iranian people would be a good thing. That is, with the hopes that they would have the numbers and strength to prevail over their government somehow. The touchy thing is, if we were to reach out to the I ranian people, would that be seen as a provokation by the Iranian government? Probably. But the question is, what countries would choose to come to Iran's defense? That's the big question for sure.

  I absolutely agree with Gov. Huckabee in looking into the Iranian election to make sure free elections were happening. Realize that 60% of those protesting are folks under the age of 30. This proves that the generation to come wants peach and the right to a life without oppression. It is time that the strongest nation in the world, America, stepped up to help a country that is screaming out for a better way to life.

  You've brought up some very good points here. I'm making sure to pass this on.

  I supported you in the last Presidential election and am still a strong fan. My husband and I watch your program on Fox as often as possible.
  When you say show our support the people of Iran, what would you have us do; to what extent should we go? I remember when the Shah was ousted, his son lived down the street from my parents here in the U.S., so I know we've been allies for many years. Although I do not believe we should fear the current "supposed" leader of Iran, I also realize there are those irrational people who cannot be dealt with in a rational way. What would you propose?

  Great video!! I am glad that you pointed out that the Iranians were not dancing in the street after 911. We do need to pray for them that GOOD will prevail over evil that has saturated the govt.
