'Brave Hearts' Abroad

" All right Fox News alert now from overseas witnesses say tens of thousands on the streets of Tehran at the moment protests in yet again the election of last Friday. Now we are relying on these witnesses on the ground because Iran has all but succeeded in a total media blackout of what's happening on the streets. This was home video Fed out of the country yesterday. The presidential challenger Musab he has called for. Peaceful protest today to remember those killed on Monday -- seven shot and killed on Monday. -- and voters and students keeping the fight alive get their voices heard. The White House has been relatively quiet on the Iraq issue that might be changing today. Member of the house represented Mike pence from Indiana Republican. Announcer you're about to introduce a resolution this week tell me about what's in this resolution what he wanted to do."

" Now look the they're the American cause is freedom and in that cause America must never. Be silent night introduced a resolution here on Capitol Hill on talking to my Republican and Democrat colleagues about. An opportunity for the American people through their elected representatives to express. Are unqualified support for those brave men and women who are risking their liberty and even their lives taking to the streets on behalf of freedom they're there they're demonstrating for free elections for the freedom of expression. And as we have done so many times throughout the history of this nation. I think the American people. Long for the opportunity to stand up from our people to the people of Iran and say we are with you in spirit if you stand for free and fair elections in your income."

" Just to repeat -- a week later down the road now a lot of the protests is based on the fact that they have paper ballots. And yet there were millions and millions who went to vote last Friday in the results were announced just hours after. I think the polls close in Tehran other major cities have the president has said that he does not want to be seen as meddling and running affairs. If you think of that time."

" Well bill I appreciate the fact that the president has said that those protesters have a right to be heard and respected I appreciate that he said he was troubled. But I respectfully disagree. Where the president's. Approach where were -- says in effect the administration has chosen not to meddle. In the internal affairs look we've got a long history in this country of standing with those who stand up against tyranny. In their own countries at least the American people I think. Long for the opportunity. To give to give encouragement. To the millions of Iranians who are risking their liberty and their lives in the cause of freedom at the president. For his own decisions drawing the line where he sees that and has the right to do. Is not willing to give them unqualified support to the people of Iran I think the people's house here. Across the street would welcome the opportunity and a bipartisan way. Bring a resolution to the floor of the congress to say we the people of the United States of America support the people of Iran. Who are taking a courageous stand on behalf of really universal human."

" Right until that point Senator McCain was on the air yesterday with a pretty strong message about how he would handle this. He was talking we heard from about our own Chris Wallace last -- 6 o'clock hour what what should the president say put it words for."

" Well -- look again I want -- the president has the right to draw the line where he chooses to draw a dime on someone. Little League game when Ronald Reagan well this is this morning I think what Ronald Reagan when Ronald -- Reagan went to the Brandenburg gate. He did not say mr. Gorbachev that wall is none of our business. He would fit to the Brandenburg gate and he said mr. Gorbachev tear down. This wall we we know from people like -- time Sharansky. And Alexander souls and -- in the deep in the who lives of the Soviet Union. When Ronald Reagan was willing to call the Soviet empire the evil empire. It gave encouragement. To the people who were fighting tyranny within the Soviet Union I'd like to see the president of the United States. Give unqualified. And unqualified message of affirmation and support to those brave Iranians who were taken to the streets on behalf of their own freedom. It's what Americans have done throughout our history. Many of our presidents have done that as President Reagan did. And I'd like to see this president do that but what regardless of what our president's. This congress should take up. This week. A resolution. Allowing the American people. To support and endorse the courage and valor and the brave hearts of millions of Iranians who -- standing up for their fundamental freedom we."

" Every suggestions that Hillary Clinton may -- Joe Biden's been the president zero this -- take a tougher stand we don't know if that's true or not perhaps it's happening in different meetings. But Mike pence we appreciate your thoughts this morning we'll follow your resolution on the hill thank you sir -- Republican for many."
