It's not our call or is it?

>>It's not our call. We "helped to replace" the Mossadegh government in 1953. That action had the support of the mullahs. Today it's held against us. Anything we do to influence the course of events in Iran only gives Iranians another excuse for their own failures. This is their government. It's up to them to live with it or do something to change it. Freedom isn't free.<<

It's not our call but it's our survival. These loons will have nukes soon and will not hesitate to use them against the great Satan because Allah is on their side and he is talking directly with the supreme Mullah. So, what to do? Leave them alone? I don't think so. The Mullahs must be toppled no matter what others might think. They pose a national threat to us and we have to eliminate them sooner rather than later. Otherwise, some day a dirty bomb or worse might explode in your neighborhood. It's just a matter of time.
