When I was looking at Iranian blogs the people admire America and thought by and large the Supreme Guide and Aljhmanajeed were raving lunatics. Of course, that was several months ago before the mullahs created a media blackout.
This will all work out. I mean, look at the 10+ islamic nations in the arabian peninsula that are pro-Western (surrounding the problem nations, if you notice) and don't have some raging radical influence keeping us at their neck.
Slow, steady, pressure, if W does this right we can avoid the armageddon and the Samson option altogether.
