We've been soft on Iran and Syria, now the chickens come home to roost. I know I saw an article within the last couple of weeks that Rice had convinced GWB to soften his demands on Iran. What a disaster.
You can blame our MSM for much of that. They've successfully turned a great deal of Americans against the Iraq efforts, making Pres. Bush and co. much more reticent to go into other places, like Iran. How disgraceful

Naturally, I'd love to see the sourcing on the article, but I won't wait with baited breath. Look, we've yet to back off our original demands on the Iranians on enrichment, which we don't expect them to agree to. In fact, we expected them to begin this terrorist offensive against Israel as part of their answer. Why do you think we are being so supportive of the Israelis? Because we know that Hezboallah is a subsidiary of the Revolutionary Guards Corps and we want it off the boards.
The Iranians are going to get bashed around a bit by the IDF In the Levant. They will try to answer by revving up their butt-boy, al-Sadr, in Sadr City and send his goons after our troops in and around Baghdad. What do you want to bet we are anticipating this next move?
I will bet you that Bush, Rice, Olmert, and Tzivi Lipni coordinated this whole affair. The Israelis, btw, issued an order 8, calling up the reserves. That means their going after Hezboallah tooth and nail.
A lot of what you see a softness on the part of Rice is simply allowing the enemy to overplay his hand. The entire Iranian negotiating affair is aimed at Dinner Jacket overplaying his hand. He will do this because he cannot do anything else. He is convinced we are weak, so he unleashed the dogs in Lebanon and Gaza. The IDF is about to show him otherwise.
Take Hamas, for instance. They got elected, and instead of taking the diplomatic path, started firing Kassams into Israel proper. Not even the appeaseniks in Europe could support them. Abbas was left speechless, but since he was Fatah, he didn't care. So Hamas did what we knew they were going to do and went to Teheran for money. The rest is history.
Try to understand that diplomacy is sometimes warfare conducted by other means. Hopefully, Dinner Jacket was stupid enough to fire the first shot too soon.
Be Seeing You,
