    NO, and I do not think we should support Israel either.

    Stay away from all countries and focus on the United States. Then, we can actually achieve something good for our own people.

    Obama should not interfere regarding the dire situations in Iran

    I feel his interference would draw alot of criticism from the Muslim and World community

    It would make him no difference from the previous Bush government, poking their nose into others affairs and not focusing on the current being of their own country

    Regardless, what is the sleeping United Nations doing? As usual.. Taking action too late.. One thing Obama could do is to pressure UN to take necessary actions to remedy the problems surfacing in Iran

    No -- it's an internal problem. We usually get into trouble when we try to interfere with a country's internal politics. We also don't want anyone to interfere with OUR internal problems. How about if Venezuela bails out California? Or if China sent troops to "help out" in 2000 with Bush v. Gore? Remember Vietnam and Nicaragua?

    No, he should not "interfere" in Iran. The Persian people are doing fine. And nobody can do it for them. They have to do it themselves.

    However, I am quite disappointed at his lack of moral support for Persians who want democracy.

    Ever since the USA was founded, we have supported people everywhere who want democracy. The US President should have said more, and said it sooner.

    No way. We got problems of our own. If Iranians were succesful in 1979, they can be succesful today again by themselves. The world have told us to butt out so let the Iranians sort this mess out by themselves.

    No. They never wanted our help before so i dont think its fair now that the government did them wrong, we are suppose to interfere. America has its own problems, nows the time for the president to worry about his fellow americans not everyone else in this world.

    We went into Iraq to help them and now the people in Iraq hate the US and want us out.We already know the Iranians hate the United States.Lets not forget Iran was cheering and dancing in the streets on 9/11. It's none of our business.

    Why should he? We shouldn't interfere with them until they do something to interfere with us. We can make money by selling one of the sides weapons though. So I guess we could interfere that way, but not in military force.

    no. let'em slug it out themselves. Later on simply supply Israel with whatever they need to take care of whatever problem they'll eventually have with Iran.

    No. And we shouldn't. It backfired on us before. They need their voices heard. Not ours.
