#1 I hope GWB reads this post, because this is exactly what's in store for Iraq if the new gov't there is turned over to the mullahs.

#2 If the Iranians don't revolt now, they never will.

#3 Look, after what happened in Hungary in 1956, Cezchoslovakia in 1968 and in Iraq in 1991, I suspect that the administration would rather not see an uprising in Iran. We're simply not ready yet to go in and liberate the place. That is why there is such a conspicous(sp?) lack of support for the students.

R-dog, I suspect the administration is painfully aware of the possibility. Remember though that the current bunch in the whitehouse tends to play things close to the chest. And they're good at political manuvering. I'm not too worried.
