Both of these articles are about the protests in Iran. Iran decided to follow Egypts example and is trying to get r id of there Government. Both of these articles say that while the protestors are protesting peacefully the Governent is reacting violently. Two have already died.
At first I thought it was probably obvious that this was going to happen but then I read the second article where you here Obama's opinion. He says that Iran said that they applauded Egypt for what they are doing but now they are completly going against what they previously said was a good idea. They are just hypocrits. If they were going to act like this then they should have never made the prevous comment. It doesn't make what they are doing any better but at least they'd just be dictators and not dictators and hypocrits. And from what I've noticed from the articles we want to get involved and help the protesters which we can't because we don't want to worsen our relationship with these other countries especially if the protestors manage to lose, gas prices are high enough as it is.
