"Iran sees Bush as being weak, hobbled by unpopularity at home, and as such, are feeling empowered to speak out of turn."

 

According to this analysis, spelled out in commentaries by Ahmadinejad's strategic guru, Hassan Abassi, known as the "Dr Kissinger of Islam", President George W Bush is an aberration, an exception to a rule under which all American presidents since Truman, when faced with serious setbacks abroad, have "run away". Iran's current strategy, therefore, is to wait Bush out. And that, by "divine coincidence", corresponds to the time Iran needs to develop its nuclear arsenal, thus matching the only advantage that the infidel enjoys.

That's ridiculous. They know very well that Reagan's policy was to slam down hard on the enemy. Look at Quadaffi.
