The anti-government protests, which began on Tuesday, were the largest in months and included unprecedented chants calling for the death of Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. (AP Photo)

That picture depicts some very brave young men who just may be the future freedom fighters the President speaks of.

If a revolution ever erupts in Iran, we must be prepared to fully support it. To not do so would be an injustice to democracy and make us appear contradictory.

Its time to step up if Iran were stupid enough to try and block the Strait of Hormuz. We could station the Navy there which, in conjunction with the Air Force, would defend against sea and land-based threats - silkworm anti-ship missles and other shore hazzards. Even if an Iranian missle were to somehow get within several miles of an American ship, well, I assume we all know what a radar-guided Phalanx system can do to an incoming target in a fraction of a second :)
