The article goes on to say,

American officials stress, however, that regime change can be achieved without military action. There are strong hopes in Washington for a popular revolution in Iran by democratic opposition groups inspired by what has happened in Iraq.

I guess this is supposed to be reassuring. Never mind that the Bush White House was saying pretty much the same thing about Iraq even as everyone on the planet recognized that the Bushies were hell-bent going to war there.
