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.
