One of the underlying reasons that the US will not actively get involved in an Iranian revolution is our close tie to Turkey. The Turks are fearful that any sudden change in the Iranian politic will spur the Iranian Kurds to align with the Iraqi Kurds to align with the Turkish Kurds and bingo there's goes part of Turkey, Iraq, and Iran and to that I say----it's about time. The Kurds have the distinction of being the longest running indigenous people, in the world, to have never had their own nation.
