“You people,” take note. If more of us in the west were to speak out, and especially those in high profile positions such as politicians, celebrities, media mavens and media “talking heads,” the dictatorships of the world would collapse relatively quickly.

The great fear of dictators is that they will lose the “support” of their victims. In the age of instant communication the strategy for freedom lovers should be a “no-brainer.”

It’s a moral issue.
