“Iran is going to stop it’s nuclear program, or bombs are going to fall.”

Let it never be said that Walter Russel Mead does not know how to close a column.

I’m not sure if I buy the premise. Even if Mead is right, it could be the Administration is hoping Iran will believe that they are serious, rather than actually being serious.

That we are in “something of a pre-war atmosphere with Iran,” on the other hand, would seem obvious to anyone who’s been awake for the last thirty years.

Questions abound:

  1. Does Obama really think he’s going to get the UN on board with this?
  2. Is he prepared to lead a ‘coalition of the willing’ into Iran?
  3. Will Cindy Sheehan’s head explode, or just go into a series of unsightly jerks that will last the rest of her life?
