Attacking Iran is the stupidest thing we can do, especially now.

Iran is much more united and has a much stronger military, plus it would hurt relations with China. Just allowing Iran to breathe for the next few years is the best thing we can do for it.

Contrary to popular belief, Ahmadinejad is not the ruler of Iran, they have a postion called the Supreme Ruler. The guy who has that postion right now, Ali Khameni, is much more sane. I don't have a cite for this but everything I've heard (right and left sources) say that the current administatraion in Iran is very unpopular with the people and the people of Iran just hate the American government, not the people.

Plus, Iran can not get nuclear weapons for at least 13 years.
