"United States has gone to both back door and front door negotiating rooms with
the mullahs time and again. When the mullahs asked the West to impede the
overseas opposition to the Iran's regime, the United States and Europe responded
affirmatively by placing Iran's main opposition groups (MEK and NCRI) on the
terrorist list for the past ten years. This categorization has tied the hands of
the enemies of the ayatollahs and has eased the regime's anxiety. Nevertheless
Tehran's behavior has not changed. In the past few months, knowing well what the
mullahs' intentions in Iraq are, the US went to the negotiating table twice. In
these meetings US envoys complained about the mullahs' behavior while the
mullahs' proxies delivered their usual insults and demeaning lectures. It is
time for an honorable, just and wise action. The United States must give up hope
that the barbaric mullahs will some day learn how to behave in a civilized
manner.The only solution for the Iranian people, for the region and for the
world is regime change in Iran. More importantly, the agent of change can not be
a foreign power or foreign war. Iranian regime must be changed by the Iranian
people and their legitimate resistance. Opposition groups that have not been
involved in the crimes of the Shah and the mullahs' rule should be supported in
their drive for a secular, free and democratic Iran. Containment should not be
the goal of American policy toward Iran. Regime change is the answer. "
This is perhaps the best answer to the question about Iran that I have ever read, An invasion of Iran in the way that he did Iraq would be a complete and total failure. The people of Iran deserve better government, and the region is not going to be stable until Iran itself is stable.
