Does anyone really belive [sic] that the Framers would have cared about what was going on in what was then called Persia?

I would like to avoid getting involved in Persia, but since we are "The Great Satan" and only about 30 minutes flight time by ICBM from there, it is to our advantage to help them get rid of the nutjob.

1. Sorry about the typo. Type in haste, repent in leisure.

2. Iran has ICBMs? Wow, you’ve got some good sources! Last I heard, they’re weren’t able to cobble together a “Fat Man/Little Boy” type A-bomb yet.

3. The Old World has been nothing but a source of grief and mischief for the New World. That is why, until the ghastly Woodrow Wilson chose to involve the USA in the “Great War” in Europe, all earlier administrations chose to keep the USA at arms length from that part of the Globe.
