Hats Off to Josh
Any of you who watch the front page here must realize that Josh usually takes weekends off. And he deserves it.
This weekend, however, he has been posting like a mad man. And I can't blame him because I'm mad too. I think we've all learned by now that any election that goes bad and needs to be disputed can cause nothing but pain for years ever after.
So, hats off to Josh for sticking with this story, and reporting in so regularly.
Here's hoping....well, here I'm hoping.....here's hoping that elections will run more smoothly and be more fair in future. Here's hoping Iran's people will continue to get so righteously angry, and keep their voice going loud and strong.

True. I just wish there was something that we, as the US, could do. We've painted ourselves into a few corners in that part of the world, though.
Keep up the good work, Josh.

Given our history of meddlesome tactics gone awriy in the Middle East and Iran in particular, it's probably best we watch from afar. And hope, too.

You said it Josh is a saint.

Huh? He's in the journalism business. A lot of journalists go 24 hours a day when real chaos hits, weekend or not - I know a few trying to get into countries when most are fleeing, sneaking past those police and military cordons, getting in the middle of the bloody batons and random shooting. Most of Josh's posts except his analysis of Netanyahu's speech were simple references to what writers elsewhere (Gary Sick, Juan Cole, Newsweek, Spencer Adams) were writing in far greater detail.

Kudos. I'm finding a lot of opinion about the election results, but not much reporting or footage. Thank you.
