[QUOTE=Flash;675677]Well, considering we hold very considerable sway over the Egyptian government and military while we hod absolutely none over the Iranian regime, what more than a couple of statements could we have done with the Iranians? Sell them arms for hostages? Eh, another administration tried that, didn't work out too well from what I remember.
Let's make sure I understand you correctly, Flash-O: It's OK to trash an allied regime, demand their leader step down & its people riot in the streets, but we have to suck-up to enemy states & never, ever, encourage its people to revolt? What planet do you live on? Are you involved in the intelligence business on my tax dime? Your observations, IMHO, just get weirder & weirder
