HAWK, many Americans are praying that our government will change. But I don't think I'd advocate treason among the military as you do.

As the situation get more precarious for the Iranian rulers they will show more extreme behaviors. If they feel the reins of power slipping they are likely to become more brutal to their own citizens.

The same situation is likely to cause them to redouble their efforts to obtain nuclear weapons. There seems to be a perception that foreign relations change dynamics once a country produces WMDs.

The foreign policy shown so far by Obama is not well organized nor is it likely to achieve success in keeping Iran from becoming more dangerous.
