-Invading the country to topple Amahdinejad, with the ensuing havoc, death and billion-taxpayer's dollars military and reconstruction expenses (Think Iraq)???
or
-Using a fraction of that money to boost Iranian democracy and topple Amahdinejad by the use of ballots?
He's losing political ground day by day, and Iranian people are already wary about the possibility of a US invasion. Why not use the people's power (with a little help from the CIA) to put things right in Iran.
Or is it necessary to use the US military might?

Number 2 is better. nobody dies, the US military doesn't stretch to where they have no troops, and oh yeah- we get what we want.
They don't have nukes yet BTW....
AS for invading, could anyone here suggest a way that we could do it in a fast, successful model? could anyone back that up with an intelligent argument? Thought not.

well... there are some problems...
the big one being... Iran doesn't vote in it's religous leaders that really control the country...
Amahdinejad is just a puppet...
I would stupport focused air strikes on nuclear facilities though... but we don't have the manpower or the will to start another war at the moment...
and Iran HAS NO ICBMS to hit America with and problably no decent planes that could carry out such a mission... so they would have to put them on a boat... which would take considerably longer than 40 minutes...

I really believe it is a watch & wait with Iran - If we put milatary forces in we either have to get out soon from Iraq & Afganistan. If Iran is attacked my bet is Syria will come in on Irans side If we use theCIA Democracy argument it will be another Iraq. Your Choice

Well you need to study up on Iran, Amahdinejad is merely a figurehead, elected in a pseudo-Democratic Theocracy. Not just anyone can run for office in Iran. Any candidate must be approved by a council of radical Muslim leaders. Ultimately it is the radical Muslim mullahs who run that country.

How would money help democracy? If they don't reelect him, then the "Supreme Leader" would still be a crazy radical.... we need to remove him by force if we really want to weed out anything, and who's to say that Iranians will not elect another psychopath?

which is faster, question one. by the way once they have nukes it only takes 40 minutes to reach the U.S. i don't think you could topple there government in 40 minutes using number two
