Was 'Pelosi's Plan' Broadcast 17 March On Iranian State Satellite TV (IRINN)?

John of Satellite News (Iran) says that what he's hearing from the Iranians on their state State Satellite TV (IRINN) - reminds him of the Pelosi plan.

Neither Iran nor the Pelosi Democrats is saying what will happen in Iraq after the US leaves. I don't think the Democrats even have a clear idea, but I can't help thinking the Iranians do.

Watch the video and decide for yourself:

As Senator Joseph Lieberman, I-CT, said in his speech to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) on March 12, 2007: "There is something profoundly wrong when opposition to the war in Iraq seems to inspire greater passion than opposition to Islamist extremism." The time has come for us to come to our senses about Iraq. There is something profoundly wrong when there is so much distrust of our intelligence community that some Americans doubt the plain and ominous facts about the threat to us posed by Iran!

It's time to step back and start thinking together about our national interest again, to say "yes" when we agree and "no" when we don't, and to find ways to disagree without dividing ourselves from one another.

It's time to step back and remember that there is a real enemy out there--an enemy violently opposed to human rights and women's rights and gay rights and the basic political rights of each one of us.

It's time to step back and see that America's interests lie with the interests of free people everywhere, and that the response to radical Islam is not to abandon them but to stand with them--whether they are in Baghdad or Teheran or Jerusalem.
