<<...If freeing Iraq and Iran from its Totalitarian represive govt's isnt a noble goal I dont know what is.>>

Do you want America's sons and daughters to get involved with engineering 'regime changes'...?? Do you want to spend tens of billions of our tax dollars on military initiatives that may stir up a hornets nest over in The Middle East...?? It's important to think things through before we act. There's NOT a military solution to all the world's problems. Are we supposed to be the global policeman and just have American troops intervene when it looks like repressive governments don't meet our standards of democracy...??

iran is predominately shiite... as is the basra region of iraq... they're really the only shiite areas as far as i know; the rest of the moslem world is sunni...
