>> Your "plan" and entire attitude just radicalizes MORE of them.

This remark reeks of ignorance.

The facts don't support your claim. Iranians have been fighting America in Iraq since '03. Now, suddenly, they look into Iraq and think, "shit, I want some of that democracy; however bad it is, it is better than we've got". So, now, they're trying to get it. When they kick out the current leadership, you kill off funding for major threats to the US (which you would deny even exist). Hopefully, they are able to make it happen.

You claimed that GTMO "radicalized" more of them, yet GWB was able to prevent terrorist attacks for nearly a decade, and under Obama we've had three here the first year after announcing the closing of GTMO. So, how's that working out?

Obama was certain he could contain Iran by talking nicely to them. We told you that was idiocy. Who was right? Even Obama has all but admitted it was a foolish error.

If you have an argument to support your claim, make it.
