To M.E. : I commend you for your vision and eloquence in portraying the large picture containg the battle between Ahuramazad vs. Ahriman occurring before our very eyes in what was the ancient Persian Empire territory.
I concur with you on the Iran issue, but I believe that the Iranian people who have sought a modern secular democracy since the time of Dr. Mossadegh in early 1950s deserve to have the best government in the region, not the worst as they have now. And in that effort, US and the west could play a historic role reversing and erasing their faux pas of the 1953 coup against Mossadegh and showing to the secular democratic forces in Iran that this time around they are with them.
Freedom seeking Iranians would rally around this support, and will rise up when they hear a clear, uncompromising, and unwaivering battle cry (regime change as stated policy) from the west against the Theocracy of Terrorists of Tehran.
