Obama said the unsayable today in Cairo. He said that the suffering of the Palestinians is intolerable; he used the word Torture in the US context; and he said out loud, in Egypt, a country which I know very well, that all peoples long for a government that doesn't steal from them. Bless him for daring to change what can be spoken.
Just bless him, actually.
And on a day which commemorates Tiananmen.
What a day.
