On the crisis in Iran Pat Buchanan writes:
"Given its monopoly of guns, bet on the Iranian regime. But, in the long run, the ayatollahs have to see the handwriting on the wall." He then asks the question: "As they look about the region, how can the ayatollahs be optimistic?"
To this I say the only writing that the mullahs see emblazoned on the wall are three glorious words: VICTORY OR DEATH! The very same words chiseled there 30 years ago when Ayatollah Khomenie radicalized Iran under his evil rule. VICTORY OR DEATH! With death bringing the triumph of everlasting life in a blissful epicurean paradise.
To Buchanan's question about the mullahs keeping their faith in the face of grave challenges and dangers the answer is clear: they have the same unshakable faith that madly inspire suicide martyrs before they strike.
