Going to the Geopolitical Base

I guess the administration has just given up on the "hearts and minds" of the Islamic world. In the same day, the Bush administration refused to negotiate with Iran, it pledged to aid Israel if it was attacked.

Yeah, I'm sure that will help end the war on terror.

(Yglesias, filling in for Josh Marshall, has a brilliant post about the refusal to negotiate with Iran.)

    This administration has the mindset of the playground bully..and apparently the IQ of one too.

  • My guess is that they want the conflict for a number of reasons, both domestic/ political and geostrategic. Whether that's the best policy, or what's best for the country....

    Also, suddenly, there are rumblings that talks with North Korea are about to start back up.
