President Ahmadinejad is a member of the Hojatieh sect, seen by many Shiite Muslims as verging on the lunatic fringe of Islam, and thought to be so extreme by Ayatollah Khomeini whose 1979 revolution overthrew the shah that it was driven underground in 1983. The Hojatieh sect is now very much back in favor with the new Iranian government, and the new president is a fervent admirer of its spiritual leader, Ayatollah Mesbah Yazdi, known in secular circles in Tehran as "the crazed one."

If we had killed Hitler back in the '30s we might have prevented WW2, at least in Europe. Will we make the same mistake again?

I am afraid political correctness is seriously hampers our efforts to defend ourselves and the world.

Based on the Bush doctrine, we should have already effected a regime change in Iran and Syria, but with all the yapping terrorist lovers attacking him for having deposed the dictator of Iraq, it's hard to go on and continue the job.
