The bottom line about Iran is:

They are going to press on with their nuclear program and we can't do a damned thing about it.

You can thank Bush for that. He has so weakened the U.S with this invasion and has spread our military so dangerously thin that we can do nothing more but stand there and whine. Military action is out of the question. We can't battle another insurgency--especially one right next door to the other one that is currently kicking our ass.

While Europe is making a lot of noise, they are toothless cowards who aren't going to actually lift a finger. They are waiting for America is step up and we can't.

Iran knows this and that is why they are thumbing their nose at us daring to do something. We can't and we won't and they know it.

Thank you, Mr. Bush. Before you leave office, we're going to show you how much we appreciate everything you've done for us.
