Re:Not a great idea. (Score 1)

I agree with you Wnight that there is grandstanding going on - and certainly not by you. A discussion on Iran is an interesting one because of the parallels to be drawn between it, and the US. They want nothing more than the US does, and they have nothing more than what the US has and that is a theocracy. God, or those who lay claim to him lead in falsehood. Much like the Shah The argument then becomes can one opt out of something that really isn't a culture? Goodness only knows what "culture" the US is trying to impose upon the rest of the world. Judging from the absolute poverty here and the lack of compassion or even basic medical care for 46million...I would say a culture of freedom is not being transmitted, only a culture of oppression and war mongering. I ramble.
