Well, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Mullen comes out today and says exactly what I've been saying for several months now: that the
consequences of Iran getting the bomb will be just as dangerously
unpredictable as the
consequences arising from an Israeli strike to interdict - it has driven me crazy how supposed pundits dismiss as if ludicrous an Israeli strike because it would be the
worst possible outcome - it wouldn't be, it should be obvious to anyone expending a little imagination on the problem that it wouldn't be and it's a bit troubling that so few in the
commentariat seem to get that. I'm not saying Mullen agrees with me entirely on how this puzzle fits together - but it's nice to have the scales adjusted towards a semblance of reality.
