Iraq... Iran... whats the difference?

[MarkDel]

Iran has a decen enough chance to reform on its own that the West should intervene with force...remember the IRaq-Iran war? The IRanians are generally patriotic, they will support their leaders in a war, much like Americans would. The West should focus on supporting the democracy movement within the country instead.

Gustaf,

Correct! That's why we have taken no overt action against Iran since 9/11.

You know something I don't?

*hopes so*

Unfortunately, my contacts do not extend to the State Department or Pentagon, so I don't know for sure. I do have a close friend who works for the CIA, but she is strictly an analyst and would not be privy to the real stuff, and probably wouldn't tell me if she was...it's not like she's Sandy Berger or anything...LOL
