Iranian Women's Rights Activist Calls Out Kamala Harris Silence on Regime's Atrocities: 'Who Are You?'

Masih Alinejad, a women’s rights activist who fled the Iranian regime and now watches it crumble under U.S. and Israeli military pressure, slammed former Vice President Kamala Harris for remaining silent as the regime massacred tens of thousands of protesters in January, yet choosing to speak out only after the United States acted to bring the regime to an end.

I am tired of seeing some politicians here in America, especially Democrats, making this about their own politics, scoring political points like Kamala Harris. Suddenly, she kept quiet about the massacre. Suddenly, she found a voice condemning the targeted military strike against the killers. So when ordinary people get massacred, you don't have any problem? Who are you? 

Harris focused her fire on none other than President Donald Trump, arguing he "dragged us into a war the American people do not want." 

She went on to say that "He has put American troops in harm's way," and that she "unequivocally oppose[s] this war of choice, and everyone should."

A rich statement coming from a woman who served under an administration who's chief foreign policy success was their disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, abandoning the region, allowing the Tlaiban to retake power, and leving billion in American military equipment for terrorist organizations to use.

The point Alinejad makes is glaring. 

Democrats seem to find their voice only when opposing President Trump. When truly evil regimes commit truly evil acts, their outrage is far harder to detect. They are quick to denounce perceived oppression in the United States, a nation that has spent decades confronting and correcting its own injustices, but far quieter when real dissidents are jailed, tortured, or killed abroad. It is easier to allege racism and sexism in a country with equal rights enshrined in law than to confront dictators who massacre their own people. 

When the conversation demands serious solutions to genuine suffering and unmistakable tyranny, Democrats too often have little to say.
