...Should We Stay Firm on Iran? Charles Krauthammer's viewpoint "Keep Up the Pressure" was a balanced response to Joe Klein's article [Dec. 17]. The problem I have with the whole debate is that everyone looks at Iran's approach to nuclear-weapons development from a traditional-warfare point of view. Think of the disruption a well-placed bomb could cause if it were set off in key strategic locations, like midtown Manhattan and outside the Capitol. I would be more concerned with the enrichment program than with the weaponization or delivery-systems side. Developing systems to detect...
...With the American public as his audience, Bush regularly takes center stage to perform well-rehearsed and accomplished lies. His latest tour de force? Because of Iran's supposed continuous pursuit of nuclear weapons, only an aggressive foreign policy can prevent World War III.

Before the NIE findings, how close did Bush push us into yet another military engagement? When Bush talks about winning in Iraq, what is it that we will have won? Will it be worth our military losses of more than 3,800 Americans killed and thousands more maimed or mentally affected? The NIE report is a reminder of Bush's disconnect with the reality that we Americans are forced...
