Helping Iran Get the Bomb

Russia has sent an air defense system to Iran. There can be no other way to interpret this move except as a preemptive repudiation of any international effort to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

It's time that the United States and its closest allies come to terms with the fact that neither Russia nor China have their best interests at heart, and proceed accordingly.

Bravo Carol. Those of us who hate war, especially those who have seen war, understand a basic fact of life. The only way to avoid war is by being the strongest kid in the playground.

Since Truman and MacArthur played "Mine is bigger than yours" with their egos we have forgotten the total stupidity of restraint in war.

We need to return to the ethic of Roosevelt -- Theodore that is.

Who, exactly, are America's closest allies? Britain? Israel? Who else?

Australia and New Zealand - also - I would NOT want to mess with the Aussies and Kiwi's!
