I am all for non violent regime change. I don't like saying this, but the passing away of Benazhir Bhutto, has frightened the Israelis. She was going to try to establish relations with Israel. Now that makes the nuclear threat more from Pakistan.
I and a lot of others have been saying this about Pakistan for such a long time. They supplied the stuff to the Seyyeds. All you need are some Sunni extremists to gain politically, and more importantly the Israelis to fret more and more over Pakistan's threat, then Iran will be out of the picture. Now if the PPP can establish itself again, then the Seyyeds will be enemy number one again. If not then expect a US attack on Pakistan to safeguard the nukes, and the Republicans to stay.
The Seyyeds and the Sunni extremists have their own "good" reasons for using nukes righteously. They believe they have to sort the world out don't they. Right now Iran is a proxy for all the major terrorist groups. The Chinese supply the cash without any concern. The US companies in the Chinese industrial zones, love it with slave labour and almost free rent and energy. We have seen the US clamp down on some of the Chinese arms suppliers.
But I hope that the focus does move to Pakistan and away from Iran. That way the Seyyeds cannot look so important to all of Iran. And that is the only reason they are ruling. It is all based on false fear. The people of Iran do not need nukes to get the world's ear. We have our own non Seyyed culture and morality, which will confront any form of violence internally and externally non violently. Less talk about a strike at Iran, and more talk about the power of non violent general strike please.
