Me, I would dump the whole WMD thing, reestablish ties and open trade, ending all sanctions. Then let the mullahs explain their rule to their unhappy masses

And what an easy explanation for the Mullahs that would be: Our tactics have worked, the Americans are afraid. Let's continue doing what has worked--terrorism and our nuclear program. Our goal of destroying Israel is now unimpeded.

Free trade will simply quell any dissent within Iran by taking economics out of the picture.

Whenever we see a state get nukes, the war we assume must happen never does.

What a foolish thing to say. It will not happen because it has never happened before. Reminds me of the thinking we've had around here: the levees haven't yet broken, they're therefore OK.

Barnett is an original, but he's full of it on this one.
