Bout time the Iranian people spoke to the idiots in their
government
then.




The problem in Iran isn't so much the government as it is the
clerical
class.

Ahmadenijad has very little power in Iran, but the Ayatollah's trump
even him.

A while back there was a British journalist who went into Tehran and
it
was a bit disconcerting to me. It was one of those never think about
it
issues but it's a modern city.

More to the point, the sentiment among the people is changing. The
Ayatollah's don't hold much power over the youth in the country. So
we
could see change sooner than later.

All rational assessments claim that Iran, if they wanted to, could
not
produce a weapon for 5-10 years. And from what the sources who were
right
on Iraq are saying, they do not want to and there is no evidence that
they
are. What they are doing just happens to be legal as they are a
signatory
to the UN Nuclear Non-Proliferation treaty. A treaty which Israel
and
India
are not signatories yet we give them nuclear technology and now even
fuel.
There is every indication that a peaceful change of government could
occur.
Don't forget that on 9-11 millions of Iranians marched in the streets
of
Tehran with signs saying "we are all Americans today." Great strides
had
been taken by the moderate, pro-western, government they had at the
time.
That was all thrown into the garbage with Bush's "axis of evil"
speech.

Ahh, you're a nut. Got it...



So you are saying that none of that happened? Is that what you are
claiming?

I'm saying that your sensationalist version of it is suspect.


I see. I could of sworn that was Bush saying what he said on national TV.
Axis of evil, Iraq, Iran, North Korea. I do so recall the press reports of
the massive show of support for the US in of all places, Iran. After that
speech guess what? The moderates in Iran were silenced and we got what? A
resurgence in the Mullahs and Mr. Ahmadinejad. Was that a coincidence?
