I count myself among those who oppose not only military action against Iran but also economic sanctions and any other form of punishment of Iran and even propaganda-based approaches to attempting to reshape Iran in the image and likeness of the United States and Israel.
Economic sanctions -- warfare by other means, have been approved by the US Congress in HR 1400. Orange County, California Republican Representative Ed Royce explained in an appearance on C-Span that the goal of HR 1400 is to completely destabilize the Iranian economy so that the Iranian people will riot and overthrow their government.
Against the pleas of Iranian scholar Dr. Haleh Esfandiari and Iranian Nobel laureate Shirin Ebadi, among others, propaganda-based approaches to destabilizing Iran were once again funded by action of the US Congress.
These are actions that a growing number of Americans are demanding NOT be taken against Iran.
What actions should the US be taking regarding Iran?
