barely any nations recognized the Taliban as the legit. rulers of Afghanistan.
the USA certainly didn't and neither did the UN.
that's why we didn't attack Afghanistan, only the illegitimate Taiban govt.
:doh
so the only thing we need to do to make sure that it's hunky dory for us to invade Iran would be for us to say "we no longer recognize the legitimacy of the Ayatollocracy"?
what utter crap. Whether or not we recognized the legitimacy of the ruling government is utterly irrelevant to whether or not what we did is classified as an attack.
That didn't stop us from invading & liberating France from Nazi & Vichy rule.
yeah? not a few French soldiers seemed to not want to be 'liberated'.
however, I am enjoying your conversion to NeoConservatism.
