'You have one chance to talk to the people of Iran. They are watching. You want to create a reformist element in Iran and you don't speak to that? ... This is why terrorist will say, we can take advantage of the guy.'Here he is picking on Obama, like I did, but he could use his position to address the Seyyeds directly. Why doesn't he ask them point black, "what could you do, if the people of Iran went on a general strike?".
But that would be too easy. Fact is, that the US does not want to remove the Seyyeds. Otherwise what else would "morally justify" their gun-boat diplomacy.
