#1 Well, the banton is soon going to be passed from Condi to Rummy. Never hurts to have a little misdirection though.

#2 And how long and how many experts did it take the Israelis to realize this?

#4 Maybe, but I think it is accurate. Iran will obtain nuclear weapons, and Bush will have done zero to stop it.

#5 Bush will have done zero to stop it.

Should this grisly scenario come to pass, any potential debacle concerning the Iraq war will be as nothing compared to the deserving condemnation Bush would receive for inaction vis Iran.

#7 I hope this is all just misdirection, but sometimes a cigar is just a cigar (unless you're Bill Clinton).

#8 To set the record straight, I'm going to restate something here for clarification.

I believe that crippling Iran's nuclear program (if not its entire military) is of such high priority that, despite my own dislike for Bush, should he find the courage to bomb Iran and subsequently be brought up on charges for it, I vow to publically demonstrate on Bush's behalf and will vigorously work to persuade all the people I know to do likewise.

This is how strongly I feel about the importance of this issue.

#9 I thought Iran WAS the Iraq strategy?
