Iran does not have democracy. they vote of course (as does Cuba, as did Saddam's Iraq). But only the approved candidates are allowed to compete. So the claim we are going against the will of the Iranian people is without foundation. We don't know.
I have long contended that neo-cons either hate democracy or do not understand it. Both are probably true in part. And here you demonstrate elements of both. Given the US history of replacing a democraticly elected Iranian leader with a dictator, your lack of concern about the will of the Iranian people is shameful, but not particularly surprising.
