Obama Coddles Evil

Let's try a different approach maybe. Religious fundamentalists do not listen to reason, but the population of Iran aren't predominantly fundamentalists, they're average people like you or I who are sickened by the crazies that rule over them. If talks with Ahmedinejad fail, we can always talk directly to the people and come as a friend to them, winning them over to our side. Maybe we can show them that the leaders of the west are, in fact, better than their leaders, and they might come to embrace democracy, which we in turn can support. If we can get them to reject the authority of the Ayatollah and push for a secular democracy, we might find that we have another friend in the region. Their newly elected leader doesn't even have to be strongly pro-west, just so long as he or she is not a radical and doesn't have to answer to an Ayatollah. It would be a long process, but in the end it's far better than physically removing their leaders and leaving the country in chaos, which would only breed another Islamic Revolution.

It really is worth it to try another approach for once, and the US is still the strongest military power in the world, so there is always that to fall back on. We do have friends in the Islamic world, it's not like we cant try to make some more to avoid bloodshed. Obama as president, if we forget all the politics for a moment, would send a signal that the US isn't just a country of old white guys who like war and money, which seems to be the stereotype in a lot of the world.

Democracy? Who controls the media that in turn controls the mindsets of the "average people?"
