I think the Iranians have tested the political resolve of the American people and have found out what they knew to be the case all along: we are not united as a people and are not willing to fight this to a successful conclusion. The problem has not been political leadership, vascilating as it has been at times. The American people have put 9/11 behind them, and all the other manifestations of Islamic jihad against us since 1979 behind them. They want to return to the world as it was the way they perceived it before 9/11. They don't want to face this and will only face it at such time as the enemy exacts a terrible toll against us. There is no way to make the nation move energetically if it is enervated. As far as most Americans are concerned, Islamic terror is a criminal matter, not a manifestation of war.
