Anyone Surprised?

Iran continues apace with its march to acquire nukes. Of course, the reaction of the international community over the past week had to embolden it -- as the UN couldn't muster the will to issue anything more than the most tepid expression of disapproval over its act of aggression directed at the British sailors, and the US House adjourned without weighing in at all.

As the topper, Nancy Pelosi's trip to Damascus sent a signal to the Iranians that there's nothing to fear: However badly they behave, there will still be Democrats slavering to postpone the day of reckoning by engaging in further "dialogue" with them.
