I will be actually shocked if some democrats dont ultimately fold on alito too. Those in tight races may have no choice. What really amazes me is that folks watched Ruth Bader Ginsburg go thru 98-2 can be so obtuse now.

DEBKAfile: Tehran steps up war threats Thursday as three EU ministers call for UN nuclear watchdog to refer Iran’s case to the Security Council

January 12, 2006, 7:09 PM (GMT+02:00)

Our exclusive Iranian sources report Iranian defense minister Mostafa Najjar (photo) warned the Gulf oil emirates in exceptionally aggressive terms to beware of Iran’s great strength and not place its trust in the American navy. He threatened major action against any party assaulting Gulf security. Former president Hashemi Rafsanjani, head of the council for the preservation of the constitution, declared Iran’s absolute resolve to continue its nuclear development, adding “And we shall reach our desired goal! We are determined to ignore all prohibitions. Iran will not tolerate colonial policies practiced by any nation or institution in the world.”
