Obama, who has been accused by some Republicans of being too timid in his response to events in Iran, declared himself "appalled and outraged" by the deaths and intimidation in Teheran's streets — and scoffed at suggestions he was toughening his rhetoric in response to the criticism.

Obama's initial measured response wasn't "timid"; it was more or less comparative. It's obvious that in comparison to what kind of violence has been going on in Iraq on regular basis, the unrest in Teheran was akin to a road rage skirmish.

Didn't the purpose of the occupation of Iraq expire by Bush going in to hang Saddam for plotting against his dad? What is really the purpose of Obama being in Baghdad? To support the local minority that asked him not to leave and play police to the Iraqi pro-US regime?
