Iran: Becoming like N. Korea or like China?

One of the best comments about Iran I heard on "The Daily Show". It was made by a guest who is Iranian-American. He said paraphrased that Iran will either become like China or like N. Korea. In other words Iran will now become completely irrational and insane and dysfunctional to its people in any way like N. Korea, or it will become functional and rational and heading somewhat in the direction of a Republic in a democracy and toward parliamentary elections more like England, France, Germany, or Japan. And the direction will be decided by how repressive a regime the government becomes in Iran. Right now, the government of Iran has chosen insanity. In other words it has chosen the path of the dismemberment of the Iranian people just like N. Korea.For now, Iran is looked upon as an insane nation. What it will become tomorrow is anyone's guess.
