Realism on Iran.

Jules Crittenden describes in a few words the problem of Iran and the solution to the problem of Iran:

Iran has been meddling with murderous results in Iraq and Lebanon, two countries it prefers to see wracked with war and [unstable]. Iran has declined to cease and desist. Iran wants to force us out of Iraq in the most humiliating way possible. Iran wants to dominate Iraq and Lebanon. It wants to use them as part of its plan to encircle and ultimately destroy Israel. It wants to control as much of the world’s oil supply as it can. It has been working aggressively and criminally toward those ends for decades.

Therefore, it is time to take this opportunity to reduce Iran’s capacity to make war. Its nuclear sites, its military facilities. The roads and bridges it uses to transport the materiel and personnel of its demonic foreign policy. It is an opportunity the Iranians are giving us, on a platter. It is not clear to me why we are not taking it.

It's sad that regiments of Yalies and other Terribly Insightful People will switch to Turbo Mode to come out exactly 180 from this sensible foreign policy proposal.
