Hmmmmm... It would be fun to know what is going on behind the scenes in the Administration regarding Iran. It would seem the anti-missle defense may be more than signaling an acceptance of Iranian nukes. Perhaps it is a bargaining chip with Russia on the Iranian question. It sure seems to have struck a nerve with them.
I must add, I'm wondering what contribution our Sec of State made to this scheme. Very slick.
That is my take too, I don't see how the usa can strike Iran without starting a much larger war putting our troops in Iran at serious risk. So unfortunately we are stuck with Iran for the time being and they know it.
