The Iran Problem

I don't pretend to know the answer to the Iranian threat. I do know that ignoring it won't make it go away. One thing we could do, however, is make it clear to the Iranian people that we are on their side. In the late 1990's the CIA ran a covert operation in support of Serbian students. The students subsequently paved the the way for the overthrow of Milosevic. Serbia has been a democracy ever since. We should be doing the same thing in Iran. In the past few years Iranian students have protested the regime, but every time have been ruthlessly suppressed by the security forces.

If the Mullahs get the A-bomb, will it be too late? Will they be ensconced in power for good?
