Ali-Fairooz is looking directly into Condi's eyes, but Condi can't bear to look back because Ali-Fairooz's bloody hands hold a mirror to her soul.

Here is the video of the encounter, which shows Ali-Fairooz grabbed immediately by security. Then security grabbed the other Code Pink activists in the room, even though none of them appears to have done anything.

Yes, Truly Amazing

Confrontation? Do you expect more of your Secretary of State? More than looking askance? While ersatz blood-stained fingers represent real humans perishing for bush's wars?

Kudos to you, Desiree Anita Ali-Fairooz!
