From Lexington Green to July 4th

It is easy to forget that the war in which we fought for our independence from Britain that we declared on July 4, 1776, started in April 1775 as armed confrontations with the British where we asserted our rights as Englishmen.

In Iran, the protests that started over demands for fair elections has edged into questioning the very basis of legitimacy for the mullah-run state.

Is it really our policy to hope the regime lives on in order to sign an agreement with them on atomic weapons? An agreement the mullahs will never follow?
