No matter how you cut it, Iran is the victor in Bush's war against Islam. Attack, and Muslims will justifiably perceive it as an esclation of the attacks upon them. They will recuperate, but America will be embroiled in what is for them a religious war, a matter of life, death and heaven. The US will regard it as a fight for oil and because Israel wanted us to do it. Don't attack, and Iran will continue expand it's influence in it's own neighborhood.

"The prospect of war with Iran is beginning to look real. The hardening of positions in both Tehran and Washington over the past week has brought relations to their lowest point since
Iran's nuclear program to influence in Iraq and the Arab-Israeli peace process is turning their differences into all-out regional power struggle."

Tragic. According to "Frontline" Iran was on our side after 9-11, halted their rhetoric, and urged the Afghani Northern Alliance to cooperate with the US.
