Selective Outrage

As with everything the radical Luciferian left does, it is couched in selective outrage. Crying wolf and painting themselves and their causes in fear mongering and victimhood.

Take for example the ongoing crisis in Iran. Iran is a rogue nation bent on not only destruction of Israel, but the United States and all we stand for. (Little satan first, big satan next.). Speaking of Israel and the US.

The left loves anti constitutional entities, choosing dictators over freedom loving people. Take for example choosing a non-existent Palestinian people who could have lived free in Gaza if not for allowing Hamas to take over. (Insert Bill Clinton saying his administration gave the Palestinians a state.) Hamas is financed in part from Iran. It seems the left of America and other nations love dictators and despots. Take Venezuela, the left screams about intervention there. Look at Iran, where is the outrage over gunning down the protesters in the streets. The Iranian people want freedom, isn’t that a cause to get behind not shrink like flowers after the first frost?

The Iranian regime has reportedly shut down the internet, cut electricity, and unleashed security forces using live fire against civilians. Yet tonight, hundreds of thousands are said to be back in the streets of Tehran, waving the lights of their phones in the darkness–silent signals to a watching world that they are still there. In an extraordinary act of defiance, reports indicate that hundreds of mosques have been burned, a declaration by ordinary Iranians that they are done with clerical rule and religious tyranny.

And yet–silence.

Where is the outrage, where is the international community standing with the Iranian people. A free and somewhat democratic Iran tops anything they have now. Where is the Western outrage? Where are the campus protests? Where are the celebrities, the social media campaigns, the carefully worded condemnations? The contrast is impossible to ignore. Protesters who claim to stand for human rights seem energized only when Israel is the villain. When Jews are involved, outrage becomes a public ritual. When a radical Islamist regime kills its own people, the moral urgency evaporates.

Something to think about.
