THis could, just could, be the "tipping point" that causes Iran to break out into full civil war....now, suppose the secularists..the majority of Iranians who like the US..announce a provisional government and appeal to the US to intervene and help stop them from being slaughtered, well, by George...w'eve got a few brigades, and lots of air support, nearby..

If they go through with it, I am certain this will trigger civil war, with the mullahs vastly outnumbered.

Agree on the tipping point however, I don't believe they would call for US assistance. I've been to a few Iranian boards to read things from their perspective. They don't want our help for a variety of reasons, and I agree with them. If they do it themsleves, they then have a better understanding of what it takes to secure and hopefully keep freedom.
