"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

Dealing with Iran - NRO - Interview with Michael Rubin of the AEI

This is a heads up to an interesting interview by NRO Editor Kathryn Lopez checking in with Michael Rubin of the American Enterprise Institute about what's going on in Iran and what historical perspective we should keep in mind in the coming months.


I'll leave the reading of the interview to you, but had to quote something from it and why not let it be what we might least expect from president Ahmadinejad.

Lopez: Is there anything Ahmadinejad could ever say that would surprise you?

Rubin: Yes. "We will listen to our people. We will be accountable for our actions. We want to live in peace within our own borders. We will not sponsor terrorism." But, unfortunately in this case, I don't anticipate any surprises.
Morning Coffee also has some interesting posts regarding Iran, one of which is, What is Iran Hiding? This post asks questions; questions with answers, but like any answers, are they the correct ones? We can't know exactly what Iran is hiding or what exactly they are up to, but as Darrell says at the end; "Who knows, but Nukes is nothing to bluff about or with."
