His concluding remark was:
As I said in Cairo, suppressing ideas never succeeds in making them go away. The Iranian people have a universal right to assembly and free speech. If the Iranian government seeks the respect of the international community, it must respect those rights and heed the will of its own people. It must govern through consent and not coercion. That's what Iran's own people are calling for, and the Iranian people will ultimately judge the actions of their own government.http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2009/06/23/presidents-opening-remarks-iran-with-persian-translation
What you can do is send web-form email to the president asking him to speak out more strongly about Egypt in the same way. You'll find a "contact us" button in the upper right hand corner of most White House pages.
My own message was
Please make strong remarks about the situation in Egypt similar to those you made about Iran on June 23, 2009.
Our quest for "national security" has made us more insecure.
