Now, with democracy starting to grow next door, the people of Iran decided to act."

Oh, nonsense. There is no evidence that Iraq was any influence at all. It is not like this hasn't happened before in Iran. Similar events occurred in 2003, Bush dutifully gave his support and the clerics used that as 'proof' that the US was behind the revolt and used that to crush it.

Really, learn some history for a change.
