I read this paper everyday and I was very dissapointed by the editorial. This is a "rush to judgement" view over Iran rattling its sabre. I thought the editors at the trib would react like thinking conservatives instead of emotional libs.
"That said, the world situation has changed dramatically since November. The nuclear saber-rattling of neighboring Iran is heading for a showdown. To meet that threat SHOULD DIPLOMACY FAIL, the United States must begin the six- to nine-month logistical process of drawing down its Iraqi force and repositioning it to respond, if need be, to the Iranian threat."
I'm visiting my friend who has a broken leg and her neighbor starts making threatening pronouncements and acting in a threatening manner toward me, and I'm going to leave?
I DON'T THINK SO
