TEHRAN -- A bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers said on Thursday they want Congress to go on record calling for a new regime in Iran, which they said presents an equal or greater threat than Iraq in the war on terrorism, Reuters reported.

This is not the first time the U.S. officials have decided to bring about "drastic changes" to the Iranian political system.

Ever since the victory of the Islamic Revolution in Iran the U.S. and its lackeys have been promising around that they would bring the Islamic system to its knees.

In some cases they even fixed time limits for doing so. For instance, a terrorist group, whose bloody record is clear to everybody now, and which is supported by the United States, has been promising to come to Tehran and "unseat the rulers within the coming months".

The said group, known as MKO, that claims to have a "liberation army", once tried its chance in the Mersad Operations just after Iran had accepted the UN Resolution 598 in 1988 and all its forces who participated in the operations were either routed or fled the battlefield to take refuge in the bosom of Saddam Hussein of Iraq who had accommodated and supported them.

The U.S. played a crucial role in supporting the terrorist group financially, militarily and politically.

"In the global war on the cancer of terrorism, our next strategic, surgical focus needs to be Iran," said Sen. Sam Brownback, a Kansas Republican who will push a resolution calling for a new Iranian government along with Sen. Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat, and Rep. Tom Lantos, a California Democrat, according to Reuters.

It is an established fact that Iran is the chief victim of terrorism. Indeed some of the measures that U.S. has taken against Iran since the victory of the Revolution are nothing short of terrorist acts. Moreover the terrorists who had just fled Iran because of their terrorist records opened offices a few steps away from the White House and were supported politically and financially by the United States.

Washington has examined all sorts of measures since the victory of the revolution from military coup, to direct military attack, to supporting the armed-to-the-teeth army of Saddam Hussein to topple the Islamic government, but to no avail.

The senators who want to go on record must bear in mind that in their endeavor, they will go down in history the way the dictator of Baghdad went after years of a savage war against Iran. He was supported by all quarters of the world, while the gentlemen senators will not be. Iran is a wasp's nest, they are welcome to try their chance.
