Iran will collapse - its a matter of time... They can not escape laws of nature (ex. old mullahs die, because they get older). Sure Mullahs can kick and scream, but young men without jobs, who can not afford a wife and a family, they will get frustrated and demand change... they just need to know that there is a better life, than the one they have now.
I say lets bring Iran into the information age... bomb their country with no cost satelit TV, no cost internet, no cost telephones etc. and we might speed up the process.

I agree with your solution ... but I don't buy your analysis of the problem completely.
The unemployed guy who can't envision a future for himself has got to have somebody to hate ... and that makes him prime fodder for the Mullah's ranting about the great Satan.
Mike ... a large part of the ability of recruiters to meet goals can be summed up in one phrase: "It's the economy, stupid."
Serge - "I doubt in our current government ability to forsee all counter reactions to it's actions." is an excellent point that I agree with completely. There is an idealogical bent within many in this Administration (Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz come to mind immediately) that do not let reality interfere with their "vision."
