Huffingtonpost Post blogger Joan Z. Shore beats the drum for U.S. Support of Iranian dissidents MEK, who are also considered terrorists by the United States.
"Remove the MEK from the list of terrorist organizations," she writes. But only of we have the "guts" and "integrity" to do so.
Well that does it. As long as the collective manhood of our nation is called into question, we must go to war.
Alternatively, we could let the Iranians themselves say what they want through elections. And let em fight their own government if they've got a problem with it.
As awful as the current Iranian regime might seem to us, their replacements could be worse. After all, didn't the United States spend a lot of money helping the Afghan freedom fighters? And what became of that? The September 11th attacks.
All of which takes us away from the central issue: why isn't the Iranian government the problem of the Iranian people? And why do Americans have to die there?

Elections are a joke in Iran. They had an election and president Mel Gibjad or whatever his name is won.
