“Time to do that in Iran against the mullahs.”

No time. It’s too late.

And I have never seen any evidence, nor personally believed, that the nuclear program did not have popular support. The people may want freedom but they also want Iranian nukes. And that can’t happen.

Yes I have followed Michael Ledeen, faster please, but he never explained how regime change even if it were to occur, would change the drive for nukes. It won’t.

Possibly so. I always maintain that the nuke problem is something Israel should deal with airstrikes.

Doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t support an regime change.

Nukes aren’t the only problem here.

Sure it can. Out of the five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council, three are free and two are not. All have nukes.

The French, for instance, are free and have nukes. If the Iranians are free and have nukes, then how are they different than France, or worse than, say, China?
