As Springbored has noted, the silence coming out of the other nations of the Mideast regarding the Iranian election has been notable for its utter lack of volume. There isn't a single Muslim nation, to my recollection, which has said anything other than to congratulate Ahmadinejad, including Iraq and Afghanistan.
We know where our erstwhile allies, the guys who democracy-loving George Bush put into power, feel about elections: They are in favor of them, but only if they can also rig the outcome. The Iranian regime, our so-called friends and the GOP all agree with the old saying of Boss Tweed: "As long as I count the votes, what are you going to do about it?"
Shall we gather at the river?
