I believe Iran has been the main target all along
we have surrounded them now

ever since the Ayatollah Khomeini took the hostages in 1980,
we had a plan to take them out

ever since Sodomy's flirtation with Kuwait in 1990,
we had a plan to take them out

I believe Teheran will knuckle under and work with USA
in 1996, I took a ski trip to Maine (Sunday River)
at the Bed & Breakfast I met a fine guy named Koveh
he sucked as a skier, but was nice with really cute wife
he worked in the vast Cambridge (Boston) biotech arena
if I recall, his employer was Genetics Institute
we sat in front of the fire and talked for 3 hrs
he wanted to talk about the biotech world, the new world coming
I wanted to talk about Iran, since he was the first and only adult male Iranian I had come across (or have since) in my entire life
he made several points which surprised me

- 90% of Iranians hate their govt (Mullahs stole power)
- 90% of Iranians wondered why the US Army did not come into Iran and push the ruling mullahs out in 1980
- 90% of Iranians WANTED the Mullahs out of power
- 90% of Iranians HATED the old-line Islamic law
- 90% of Iranian women wanted to hit the beach in bikinis

- 90% of Iranians have favorable views toward USA
- 90% of Iranians prefer Americans to Europeans
- few Americans are aware of the Shah's brutality while he was their puppet

I believe it is possible that the insecurity felt by the Ruling Khameini boys might lead to knuckling under and working with the US Govt
and surprise a lot of people
e.g. allowing site inspections for nukular materials

I saw gentle Koveh on the slopes, on an intermediate trail
I zipped by him as he stood looking helpless and lost,
and sprayed him thoroughly on a sharp cut, just to show off
