PBS Frontline (Tonight): Showdown With Iran

[Brian Rucker]

As the United States and Iran are locked in a battle for power and influence across the Middle East -- with the fear of an Iranian nuclear weapon looming in the background -- FRONTLINE gains unprecedented access to the Iranian hard-liners shaping government policy. In Showdown with Iran, airing Tuesday, October 23, 2007, at 9 P.M. ET on PBS (check local listings), FRONTLINE examines how U.S. efforts to install democracy in Iraq have served to strengthen Iran's position as an emerging power in the Middle East.

Kinda like a tank having a showdown with a midsize sedan.

And the tank and the sedan both run on Nuclear Power! This will be AWESOME and GREAT!

I have to admit, this is starting to sound like an awesome 80's movie plot. The kind of movie you secretly enjoy watching at 4am on the USA network but don't ever talk about to anyone :)

Who's the Tank?
Usually a warrior, but a Pally might work, in a pinch.

[Midnight Son]

Why a showdown? Are they planning to set off a nuke in Washington D.C.? Because that wouldn't be that bad, would it?
