"Tear Down This Wall!"
The Berlin Wall, a barrier constructed, not as a bastion against foreign invasion, but to keep the citizens of East Berlin from escaping, fell 20 years ago today.
A few weeks ago Mark Steyn called this the greatest mass-liberation in mankind's history.
And yet, when it comes to discussing true freedom, like the dissidents in Iran a few months ago, our president is silent.
Steyn's homage to the one president who help bring about the collapse of the Berlin Wall:
