Update: Dan Riehl beat me by 9 minutes! but in fairness I was filling out the FAFSA for my oldest.

Now a film from Wednesday

Update: Sorry Iris don’t know how that video got mixed up.

There are protests in the streets, police are clashing with protesters and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s “Nuclear state” statement is as far as I’m concerned hot air.

If protest doesn’t stop the government either Israel or ourselves will have to, otherwise the equations of the middle east are changed forever.

And yes this stinks but stinks or no that is where we are.
