Stand together for a free Iran

by Forrest Sheng Bao http://fsbao.net

We shall stand together for a free Iran. Join any events where you can gather together with people to show your support to a free Iran.

You may say, oh, dictators in Iran can't hear us. How do you know that? How do you governments and media are not passing our anger to Iranian dictators?

You may say, oh, our voice won't change. Let's read this poem carved on the New England Holocaust Memorial

They came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.
Then they came for the Jew, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the trace unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.

20 years ago, in China, there was a great protest and the gov finally called tanks to suppress it. Thousands of people got murdered and more were sent to jail for even 15 or 20 years.

Remember, Martin Luther King. Jr. said, injustice in one place is a threaten to justice in one place. More free countries in the world, our freedom will be protected better. "Because freedom can't protect itself."
