So I'll narrow the parameters of the question for you;
Do you care what government runs Iran, a country of 75 million people?

So what do you think we should do?
I think that the trouble with intervention is that you can't trust the US and their motives for
any intervention. If they cared about democracy and human rights, then why have they continually supported Israel during their illegal and brutal occupation of Palestine? Why did they support Iraq, Libya...(I could go on listing brutal regimes but we all know who they are).`
