1. It's wonderful to know that the U.S. had the sympathy of those people...

...but to be fair, there are still weekly "Death To America" marches in Tehran after Friday prayer. Just sayin...

I think Iran may be a little like the US in that there are a minority of inteligent, worldly people (vigil people pictured), and a majority of moronic, nationalistic assholes (marchers).

2. Thinking humans are able to separate the Iranian people from their leadership.
When it's a political problem only, apply pressure to the leadership only. The "must kill Iran now" crowd doesn't get it at all.

4. well, that's not quite right. ..
The "Death to America" marches are quite larger than the above pictured vigil. I'm not saying all Iranians were or are now anti-American, but your comment is a bit too simplistic. Acting like Iran and it's people suddenly became anti-american since 2001 isn't accurate.
