Also I belive it was Carter that signed the presidential order that allowed the CIA to intervene. So Democrats should get a lot of the credit and/or blame for the war.

Carter started it.

And Reagan did not stop it.

Are you down with that?

I agree that many are not satisfied with the system, but I think you're going too far in terms of how the people would percieve any sort of assasination. There's a simple distinction you are missing. The Iranian people a) are patriotic and nationalistic and b) probably dislike the regime in various degrees

Assasination of Iranian leaders violates the first tenet and it's a tenet that you strongly discount. People are always protective of their homeland and dislike foreign intervention. That's why Christians in Lebanon strongly back Hezbollah today. Despite their hatred of Hezbollah, they hate Israeli intervention more. People worry more about national identity and nationalism more than they worry about leadership because leadership is much more fluid.

It's simple, they dont count them as there leaders. they see them as arab foreigners who have invaded persian iran. thats the view amongst the majority of iranians in iran. they haterd for the mollah's far exceeds anything else. you might not believe this, bush is a extremly popular individual. anyone who stands up t the mollah's, is an extremly popular...
