A bigger issue would be Kerry's backing of the Iranian Government and willingness to resume dialog with them.

In case you forgot, Iran is listed by our State Department (and has been for quite some time) as the #1 supporter of international terrorism on the planet.

The way we stopped a country which was similar (with communism) before, was to not have dialog and to alienate them over time, and over the course of 20 years they finally collapsed. That was Russia.

Iran is on the same road right now, roughly 85% of the people in Iran are students, nearly 75% of those students are for a Democratic society and have actually written Kerry a 14 page letter ASKING him to STOP with his endorsing and promise to restart dialog with Iran. They even use the terms "What have the Iranian people done to you?".

The thing here is, if we continue to NOT have dialog with Iran, they will collapse from WITHIN, within the next 5 to 10 years - it will be rebuilt on it's own without a single round being fired, or a massive amount of US Tax Dollars - as a democracy and the Iranian people by and large (at least 75% based on the people who support and are pushing for it now) will LIKE the USA.

The entire plan by all politicians is to reshape the face of the Middle East. You start with the fall of Iraq, the fall of Afghanistan and the installation of Democracy's. Iran is not a country we need to go to war with to change to a democracy and a non-terrorist-loving state. IT will do it on it's own if we continue to pressure it from the outside, from the IAEA and from the U.N. The instant we start dialog with them, is the instant we have the start the entire thing over, which we've been doing since the early 1980's.

Now, of course, if we do restart dialog with them and they stay in power. They will continue to develop Nuclear Weapons (just as they are now) and within that same time period as stated above (5 to 10 years) the U.N and all of its Allies will have no choice but to go in and "disarm" and "remove" the Iranian Dictatorship (that they call a Democracy) and the country will be turned around anyway. So, we can go about this two ways -- but we know which is the better.

Hopefully Kerry will change his mind (as he has so many other times) on this Iranian issue, because honestly - KERRY isnt that bad of a guy or politician.

A little wishy washy here or there, but there are far worse people to be in office. President Bush is NOT one of them though. What about Bush/Kerry? Wouldn't that be interested? Kerry as Vice President? Hahahaha.

Bush/Cheney '04!
