Justayid, I don’t live too far from two of America’s largest airbases in Europe, and the past few days, their fighterjets have been flying more around here than usually. This happened before both Gulf Wars and when the US almost declared war on Iran about 2.5 years ago IIRC (I’ve got friends in the military that were expecting deployment for that matter). As it seems, the USAF is preparing for a military operation.

The international community will do nothing till there is massive bloodshed, and perhaps not even then. The good thing is that one of two results can come from this – the fall of the regime, at the hands of the Iranian people themselves, or the ripping off of the regimes mask.

Iran is still a dictatorship. The protests will not succeed unless the international community does something more than just vague comments of concern.

I think the real story here is that Ck not only reads, but also links to Daily Kos. Retch.
