well... nashwan is certainly gloating over your pessimism. He is citing you as the iranian authority (along with himself of course).
Who says we wouldn't just destroy a nut jobs military capacity and pull out? everyone, including nashwan seemed thrilled when we smashed the sadman the first time and then the whole coalition pulled out...
short memories...
We could do the same.. we would be very likely to do so even under a democrat congress and president... look at klinton... he was a real sabre rattler and he was a schooozer to the your-0-peeans... he had no problem with sending missles and bombs to do wipe out a military force of a country and made the socialists UN impotent countries love him for it.
