I am admittedly limited in my ability to assess current events by my lack of access to intelligence information. My feeling is that the Bush administration is trying a variation of the Madman Strategy in an effort to intimidate Iran and our allies and Russia and China, into action to curtail Iran’s nuclear ambitions. They are, at a minimum, doing their damnedest to convince everyone that we might just blow Iran to smithereens any moment now.
If this is all a big bluff, then I can understand the rationale…even if I don’t agree with it. But a bluff this big can get out of control in a hurry if someone calls the bluff. And that’s exactly what it appears Iran is doing. I really have only one suggestion, and it is one that I have mentioned before: dual impeachment. We have lunatics running our government. We should kick them out of office.
