I believe we should give the Iranians what they wish for, nothing from us or the Israelis. Let the rich Arab states take care of their own this time. The resulting FUBAR will compound the number of casualties.

Not to nitpick, but Iranians are not Arabs. They are much more intelligent than Arabs, yet Arabs consider them second class Muslims. Many of the Iranians I know in LA don't like Arabs because the religion of pieces conquered and oppressed Persia, forbade their practice of Zarathustria (which probably wasn't a blood lust religion like Islam), and claimed much of Persia's intellectual achievements as their own.
You will see democracy much sooner in Iran than you will in any Arab country with the possible exception of Iraq, and only because of GWB.
