I hope you're right, but there still seems to be a curious passivity toward the mullahacrocy in our elite circles.

Part of it is no doubt rooted in the challenges that Iran presents, but part of it is also rooted in the deluded notion among Foggy Bottom types that we have a modus vivendi with Iran re: the Shi'ite parts of Iraq.

Obviously the mullahs will only "work with us" as long as it is in their self-perceived interest to do so.

The question is: will we recognize that things aren't as nuanced as we'd like to believe, and that we need to get the machinery in motion for the confrontation with this regime?

I hope that we don't continue to be too clever by half with these clowns, because that's usually when we get in trouble.

At the root of the problem is that Foggy Bottom doesn't work for the US or its government.
