Please note that I wrote about Osama's presence in Iran right after Afghanistan fell, both on NRO and in "The War Against the Terror Masters." It has taken the intel guys a year to catch up...

Iran should be next...They have the most pro-American populace in the Arab world (hell, I'd say more ProAm than Fr&Ger)...
They have a weak military and a citizenry ready to cheer the liberators. Of course, GOVT wise they are the biggest state sponsor of terrorism in the world.
?Who's next? Question answered.

So you are the Michael Ledeen that contributes to National Review? If so, that's great. I have appreciated your articles about Iran and its pro-US populace. I can not wait to see this dictatorship fall.

"Please note that I wrote about Osama's presence in Iran right after Afghanistan fell..."I remember that. I've enjoyed and appreciated your reporting on Iran, especially since few other reporters seem interested.
Thank you.

I caught your earlier article and agreed completly. I have been deeply puzzled about the gales of silence emanating from Tehran.
Methinks that the intel community has been quietly fomenting the "revolution" in Iran and that is why it hasn't been played up br the Bush Administration. But now, it would appear that the last vestiges of the Taliban are beginning to appear in Iran, there is concern. While there is inter-necine wafare between Islamic sects, the desire for the world-wide caliphate trumps them all.
You are an excellent writer, If I can be of assistance Freepmail me for direct contact info.

Your reporting on Iran has been great, thank you.
Do you think we are influencing events there covertly?

Wonderful to see you here;I have admired your writings for years. I think the intel guys knew as well.Unfortunately the filters of bureaucracy more than likely slowed down any alarms.Would not want to point out the left behinds who are now Senior Exectuive Service as opposed to the low level political appointees they began as .
