Joe Lieberman has been persona non grata for pal-ing around with the Republicans, but the media was incredibly excited to discover that a few “leading” Republicans have moved over to the Obama side — as if nobody has ever heard of RINOs in the first place. Aside from the fact that these RINOs are leaders [...]

Obama’s getting the press, but McCain’s saying the important stuff, at least to those who believe that Israel, as the sole liberal democracy in the Middle East, deserves our support:
American presidential candidate John McCain told Israel’s Channel 2 News station that stiffer sanctions might stop Iran’s threats against Israel. In the interview broadcast Monday, the [...]

On May 18th 2008 Barack Obama stood on stage and said Iran was not a threat.
“Iran, Cuba, Venezuela? These countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union. They don’t pose any serious threat to us,” he told a crowd at a campaign stop over the weekend, prompting the probable Republican opponent for the White House [...]

Iran is continuing it’s threats against the United States and Israel: Iran will strike Israel and the US navy in the Gulf if it is attacked over its nuclear program. On the one hand, we need to take Iran’s threats seriously, but on the other hand I fear some people see them like [...]

Sometimes, if you want to run a sanity check, it’s helpful to look at those who share the same views you do. Perhaps some of the Truthers might be a little shaken in their beliefs if they realized that apocalyto-nut Ahmadinejad is also a Truther. On second thought, when I think about who [...]

Frankly, I don’t know if I’ve ever said it on my blog, but both my mother and Don Quixote can corroborate the fact that I’ve been saying for years that mutually assured destruction is not deterrent when dealing with Iranian leaders because they not only believe in the Muslim equivalent of the Apocalypse, they also [...]

The most famous Archbishop of Canterbury was the martyred Thomas a Becket, a man who was ostensibly the victim of a political assassination, yet who essentially died for his faith. Thinking about Becket, I rather wonder what he would have made of the current occupier of his Bishopric, which is still the most important position in the Church of England

The NIE report was released and the claim is that Iran has not restarted its suspended nuclear weapons program. However, Bookworm points out that she does not trust the NIE because of the intelligence agencies past ineptnesses and I have to agree with her on that. Compound this lack of trust with [...]

I firmly believe that military force should be the last option in dealing with Iran. But I also believe that, whether we talk with the Iranians, enact embargoes against the Iranians, threaten the Iranians, or whatever else the heck we decide to do vis a vis the Iranians (including an Osirak or Syria approach), we [...]

Russian President Vladimir Putin knows that the missile defense program proposed by the United States is no threat to him or his country. So why is he making such a big deal? Putin says that there is no proof that Tehran is trying to build a nuclear-weapons program and Condi Rice accused Iran [...]
