Young at Heart

Is it really just a matter of America and the world sitting on their hands and waiting for Iran to change internally? I think it is.

With a largely youthful population, there is at least a strong generational factor in the ability for political and social change to occur--a generation that has enough outlets for democracy that both highlight the pitfalls of theocratic rule and allow for moderate change (i.e. elections, universities, NGO's, etc.) In the meantime, the last thing that is needed is sanction after sanction (and worst of all, invasion) from nations that the youth of Iran could be looking toward as exemplars of functioning democratic societies.
