Alireza, as I am within the range of a Shabib 3, I think that is what it is called, I really am thinking along the lines of what is in it for me? Am I wrong to do so?

Yes the people want change in Iran, but the Islamic Republic has a very strong system of repression and they need a helping hand, would you stand up to be counted and end up beaten to a pulp in a state run prison and executed not long afterwards.

Personally I am to the point that I have accepted that a terrorist enabling state will have nuclear weapons, I believe that at some point Tel Aviv will be a smoking ruin, and that never again was really again but by someone else.

Actually the people of Iran are a much better bet then Iraq in terms of the democracy experiment, they have had 30 years of Islamic rule, they have a great pre-Islamic culture. But of course I am too stupid to understand and I am too dumb to have a book in my personal library on Persian culture.
