LOL. The Iranian gov't supports terrorism. We are in a war against terrorism and all those who support it. Therefore, the Iranian gov't is putting itself on a collision course with the U.S. military.

Now you and others have said that the Iranian's don't want us to help them overthrow their gov't. So I posted an op-ed article that directly refuts that assertion.

Frankly, the best thing for the Middle East would be to have fewer tyrants in power, theocrats or bureaucrats. Fewer tyrants would allow the Muslims in the Middle East to start focusing more on improving their own lives rather than reaching outside of the Middle East to destroy the lives of others. So the U.S. interests are integrally tied to the interests of Middle Easterners. More liberty for them, less trouble for us.

The more theocratic Iran gets, the more trouble for us. If they become so much trouble that we can't ignore them anymore, then we have to do something about them. Right now, they are funding the insurgents and providing weapons and logistical support. That means we can no longer ignore them, if we still want to win Iraqi freedom in Iraq.

I know you have given up and don't want to keep fighting for the Iraqi. But I haven't given up quite yet.
