#2 By unilaterally attacking, it prevented hundreds or thousands of meaningless meetings and entire forests of paperwork, thus depriving vast numbers of functionaries and bureaucrats of their livelihood.

And besides, it prevented North Korea and Syria from moving all those materials to safer, less conspicuous surroundings, where they could work in peace. Terrible. Terrible.

#4 Hoekstra, ranking Repub on intelligence, was furious re: "White House spin" because the media/public was briefed before Congress, yet he knew it a year ago. Could it be because nothing gets accomplished and that some of those who have "the-need-to-know" cannot be trusted?

#8 If the IAEA got the information it would be instantly whisked away into Syrian hands where they could do things to forstall an attack or protect their operations.

Unfortunately, the IAEA can't be trusted, unlike the Bush administration, whose actions were extremely practical and effective. I guess it all boils down to a trust issue. The IAEA is working to protect their jobs, and the Bush administration and Israelis are working to protect lives.

#10 Anybody getting the feeling that putting an ARAB in charge of the IAEA might not have been the best idea in the world?

#12 If we told you, Syria would still have a nuclear reactor, dumas.
