#1 The ousted Shah of Iran Mohammad-Reza Pahlavi's son urges Israel to support post-election riots in Iran to bring down the government of Tehran

He doesn't get out much, does he?

#2 In a sense it would be far better to overthrow Iranian government by street fighting than by nukes.

I personally think a few selected assassinations
(All "Holy Men") would solve around 90% of the world's troubles)far less damaging than by nukes, it'd cost far less lives too.

You read world history, and somewhere around 99% of the world's troubles/deaths and wars were directly caused by religion, of one sort or another.

Knocking of a few "Religious Dictators" will have the same future effect as strangling Adolf Hitler in his cradle.

Gawd, for a time machine.

#3 Hitler wasn't a religious authority,

nor was Stalin,
nor Mao
nor Pol Pot

99% may be an overestimate

Don't be too sure, R.J. Everything is deeply intertwingled
