But regardless, we got what we go---a paranoid, religous extreme state on the borders of two nations we are at war in. It is not inevitable that iran/stalin cant later become iran/krush or even iran/gorby. There ideology unlike al quaeda doesnt require them to go primitive or not to deal with non-muslim folks. But all you can come up with is the caliphate and conflating all muslim extremism in one basket in order to satisfy your very simple mind.

In spite of your personal attack, I will respond.

Yes, it is possible that Iran could change. That IS what we're talking about. If, and ONLY if, that were to occur, could we then engage them in "talks". This is PRECISELY what the Bush/Obama flap has been about. You cannot talk to them as long as they're in the current state. When they make changes, positive changes, then you can talk to them.

I haven't conflated a damned thing. Muslim extremism is what it is, and as my post indicated, the Iranians were deeply involved in the jihad which became 9/11.
