Calling Michael Ledeen

A report suggests that the revolution in Iran is not beginning anytime soon.

Of course, the response of Ledeen and his ilk is probably "intelligence said the same thing about the USSR! So because they were wrong then, we know for certain that they are wrong now, so we need to push for regime change!"

The problem is, if he's wrong, and a push for internal regime change fails, we will be pushed into a full-scale conventional war with Iran. Do we want to risk that? I don't.

That is all.
