"Murder at the Cathedral," Khatami comes to Washington

I had the pleasure of meeting video blogger Andrew Marcus at the DePaul University's Ward Churchill debacle last fall.

Marcus traveled to Washington last week to record a short documentary on the visit of the "moderate" former President of Iran, Seyyed Mohammad Khatami.

Khatami was met, fortunately, by angry protesters outside the National Cathedral--Marcus nicely captures the scene and the video is available on Pajamas Media.

Pajamas Media's Richard Miniter narrates, and interviews New York Sun reporter Eli Lake, who says Khatami is not the reformer portrayed by the mainstream media. Miniter also speaks with Iranian dissident Amir Abbas Fakhravar, who was imprisoned during the "moderate's" eight year term.

Best line goes to Miniter, who states "Any dictatorial regime is essentially a civil war by the government against the people."
