Considering that Iran is the world's main sponsor of Islamic terrorism including support for violence against our troops in Iraq, it's time for the U.S. to step up support for any and all resistance groups in Iran. This should include money, arms and technical assistance. We should also employ regional mercenaries to aid in the struggle against this totalitarian theocracy. It's time to bring the war and terror to the puppet masters of the terrorists.
Agreed.
We should declare war on Iran. Next, we should begin saturation bombing of the Iran-Iraq border. Then, Mullahs should start turning up dead in large numbers.
I agree. Here are 2 of my posts on prior threads that propose one approach to the issue.
Kurds drift toward autonomy, away from Iraq's daily violence

I thought it would be cool for us to set up security for the Kurds on their southern border with Iraq, rewarding them for their bravery in defying Saddam Hussein. We put in some military bases there for, say, 20 years as part of the occupation of Iraq in their transition to democracy. We guarantee the autonomy of Iraqi Kurdistan as long as they don't engage with Turkey. But that doesn't say anything about engaging with Iranian Kurdistan. Within those 20 years the Kurds could have a secure and independent nation with expanding borders into Iran. After we close down the US bases, Kurdistan is on her own. But at least Kurdistan would be an independent nation with about half its territory carved out of Persia. If Turkey doesn't relinquish her claim on Turkish Kurdistan after that, it isn't our problem, it's 2 of our allies fighting each other, one for independence and the other for regional primacy. I support democratic independence over a bullying arrogant minority.

The kurds are the closest thing we have to friends in that area. They fought against Saddam (got nerve-gassed), they're fighting against Iran, they squabble with our so-called ally Turkey (who didn't allow Americans to operate in the north of Iraq this time around).
It's time for them to have their own country. They deserve it. They carve Kurdistan out of northern Iraq, northern Iran, and eastern Turkey. If Turkey gets angry, we let them know that there are consequences to turning your back on your "friend".
