The New Neo Posted on January 13, 2006 by neoJuly 25, 2009

On this thread from yesterday, an interesting discussion is ensuing concerning what could–or should–be done about Iran’s nascent nuclear arsenal. But one point I haven’t seen mentioned there, and which troubles me greatly, is the fact that intelligence has it … Continue reading →

The world wakes up to Iran?

The New Neo Posted on January 12, 2006 by neoJuly 25, 2009

If I don’t write all that often on Iran, it’s certainly not due to a lack of concern about what’s happening there. Au contraire; I believe Iran is of extreme importance and danger to the world. It’s just that we … Continue reading →

Nuclear bunker busters busted; meanwhile, Iran thumps its chest

The New Neo Posted on October 26, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

Remember those nuclear bumper busters from the Kerry-Bush debates of ’04? They reminded me a bit of Quemoy and Matsu in the Nixon-Kennedy debates of 1960: a big fuss made at the time, but then virtually forgotten. Well, it’s a … Continue reading →
