It's a good plan but the Iranian government would have to backtrack a long way to execute the Russian plan. But it's important to realize that backtracking now, after making so many threats, will not let the Iranian government off the hook. They've forced the free world's hand in such a public and belligerent way that the American mission has become global stability through democratization. Iran is high on our President's "TO DO" list.

ARTICLE: Spreading democracy and freedom, especially in Muslim countries, is high on Bush's foreign policy agenda. It has been criticized by some as a misguided attempt to impose U.S. values and political beliefs.

If any person has had the pleasure to experience the diversity of lifestyles, cultures and opinions of these United States, they would know immediately that it would be physically impossible to impose American political beliefs on anyone. In fact, American values are clearly opposed to restrictions on political beliefs. How is an American foreign policy engineered to foster global stability on the premise of respect for individual rights misguided? This is a totally rhetorical question... From your previous posts you've implied, that although American foreign policy may at times be unbalanced, it is by no means misguided.
