We should get real on Iran

ARTICLE: Inspectors Fear Iran Is Hiding Nuclear Plants, By DAVID E. SANGER and WILLIAM J. BROAD, New York Times, November 16, 2009

Of course Iran is hiding other sites.

The horse has left the barn. We can pretend otherwise and we can pretend we can bomb our way to elimination.

Or we can get real, like I've been arguing in print now for almost five years.

Can you see the conversation as it happened, some learned folk, all well heeled and decently paid sitting around a table, not quite sure what Iran is doing but convinced to hell that they must be hiding something.

And in the shadows near the periphery a janitor quietly sweeps while he think to himself, no shit their hiding something, if I was Iran I'd be hiding something.

How much time wasted to work out something that we already knew, however much it could have been better spent.
