The only sensible solution to the current crisis is to
keep US and Israeli hands off the Islamic Republic,
withdraw any military plan, suspend all financial aid
to self-serving, ill-informed expatriate opposition
groups, or those that discredit the legitimate
oppositional forces inside Iran - and thus allow the
democratic process to work itself out. 

This is not just the best alternative. This is the
only solution - for any investment in the
self-promotional promises of the so-called Iranian
oppositional forces and their neo-conservative cohorts
in major US think-tanks is a waste of taxpayers' money
in the US and an affront to the dignity and agency of
Iranian people themselves. 

If the international community at large has an issue
with Iranians going nuclear, and it must, then it will
have to wed that legitimate concern to the region at
large, include Israel, Pakistan, Russia and the US
(the four nuclear powers surrounding the Islamic
Republic) in the equation, and subject them all to an
identical application of the nuclear Non-Proliferation
Treaty.
