Yes! I know. That’s one of the reasons I’m wary of the outright invasion. Even the air attacks will do that, but that would be the necessary evil. They might get over it.

One of the best people I know is an Iranian engineer (living in Duesseldorf). He’s totally anti-Ayatollah/anti-Dinnerjacket, but he’s pro-atomic stations. I don’t know where his sympathies would lie in the case of air strikes, and I wouldn’t blame him anyway. But what needs to be done needs to be done.
