#1 I am wildly disappointed. I wanted the guy to STFU about 1/3 through and get real. 20-30 ExLax treatments and maybe he'll actually come up with a working outline, something actionable. Grrrrrrrrrrr...

#2 Yeah this paper is about as specific as John Kerry's "We have a better plan".

#3 The author must have been trying to get his signal to noise ratio as close to zero as possible.

The thrust of the article is 'yeah, well we need regime change in Iran and we need a plan to do it'
well duh.

#4 The big word (you won't hear) is "counter-terrorism". Unlike terrorist acts that target civilians, counter-terrorism uses terrorist methods to target the terrorists themselves.
Say, just as an example, if a couple of members of Iran's Guardian Council turned up minus their heads and a specific internal organ or two.
Or if radical Imams all over the world suddenly started to develop horrible, painful and disfiguring diseases, as if Allah himself has cursed them. Or whole towns are afflicted with homicidal hallucinations.

You see, these buggers don't know what real terrorism is. When educated, western peoples turn their efforts to committing acts of terrorism, the result is beyond horror movies, and way beyond what these primitive vandals are ready to deal with.

You forgot to mention that they have better hair, too, which is what matters!

#6 How to tame Tehran

1.) Procure 12,000 cases of minced baby food liver.

2.) 500 big ass spoons.

3.) Patience.

Sit Mullah!
Lie Down!
Play Dead!
Be Dead!
