THE U.S. AND BRITAIN are discussing democratic regime change in Iran. This has been Austin Bay’s favored approach (he talks about it here) for some time.

I have to agree with Publius on this:

This is very good news for both the international community as well as the Iranian people. The benefit for us is that we won’t have to worry about a hostile Iran with nuclear weapons, and the benefit for them is that they get to live in a free society. It works both ways. The only criticism I have of this policy is that it should have been implemented much, much sooner.

Er, faster please?
