I just love the way people have these powerfully paradoxic feelings about this subject. They absolutely don't want the USA to interfere in Iran -UNLESS-unless we can help bring democracy to that land. UNLESS...we can undo the religious dictatorship under which the Iranians (quite willingly) now live. UNLESS...interference would somehow magically turn that country into our friend and ally.

Just leave it alone. Stay the hell out. We got enough wars going on already.

Could our memories possibly be this short? We invaded another country to establish freedom and peace only to find anarchy and disorder. We should not pretend to know these people or understand their culture. What we hold dear in our western democracies may be meaningless to others. At times an oppressive religion or tyrannical dictator is the only thing that can keep order. They have every right to live as they choose, even if that choice is to wallow in their own filth.

I hope Obama has more sense than even to begin to comment on who should be elected or if the vote should be thrown or anything about a recount.

I sure am glad that Bush or any other republican is not in presidency now for sure they would be runnin off at the mouth, long before the brain begins to work or even wake up.

We have enough trouble without asking for more like Pence or McCain who have come out and expressly called for Obama to become involved-both are stupid.

I find it incredibly amusing to read how you all think it is our 'duty' to determine who runs a sovereign state. I wonder how you will react when China comes and tells us what we can and can't do? I bet you are signing a different tune then. Course, you only sing for the cause of the moment, don't you?

We'd still be British if the French had not shown up to help US out.

We'd probably be German too if the american people hadn't been goaded into going to war by the government here. So I mean, you don't want to help your neighbors become democracies? REALLY

because wasn't that the whole point of going into Iraq? lol

EXACTLY! We do not need to interfere in every little international problem. We can't quell all violence, nor should we try. It is up to the people of Iran to make themselves independent, because obviously the Iraq model didn't turn out that well.

We don't need to bury any more US soldiers over middle eastern internal squabbles.

Please let's not make an argument about getting involved due to human rights abuses. There are many regimes large and small doing much worse with respect to human rights and we don't show any real concern. If we did, we as a nation would spend a great deal of time defending people in Africa to name one. So America if you want to make our mission to help oppressed people than make a list and figure out how to prioritize it because we can't help everyone. It has been our recent pattern to put countries whose stability has an impact on the oil industry at the top of the list.

American elections are not truly free elections because you need millions of dollars to run for president. What if China or another country interfered and demanded spending caps on US elections? Elections are as free as their societies can handle, so let them evolve themselves and stay out of their business.

Just another ignorant, uneducated, savage Muslim country.
