What's Iran's bourgeoisie's alternative? As we know, the earlier overtures from Tehran during the Khatami era were rebuffed by Washington, and there's nothing that suggests that the White House will be taking a different policy toward Iran than simultaneous intensification of economic sanctions and preparations for missile strikes.
All Iran can and should do is to restructure its economy to better withstand economic sanctions, which have been (thankfully) diluted as much as possible by Moscow and Beijing, and to find Sunni allies in Iraq. -- Yoshie <http://montages.blogspot.com/> <http://mrzine.org> <http://monthlyreview.org/>
