What's That Sound?

Hmmm. What's that sound I hear? Might it be the sound of yet another nail being driven into the coffin of the Iranian thugocracy?

This has got to be one of the worst nightmares for the Iranian regime: a woman, who is strong, intelligent, and is now a Nobel Peace Prize winner - all along with the American military playing in the sandbox next door.

In times past, the thugs would have waited for a very short while and then they would have made Mrs. Ebadi "disappear." And soon after that "natural causes" would lead to her "untimely demise."

But that option is no longer available. It worked in the past due to the separation from the rest of the human rights respecting world, but now with the Americans and British within a few hundred miles of Tehran instead of thousands, the game has changed.

And it's a game that the Iranian regime can't react to and can't play.

What's that sound? It's the sound of freedom breaking free.
