TIME TO CRANK UP THAT DIPLOMACY !

It may be time to bring Obama's diplomatic outreach to Iran to a the next higher hopeychangey level....And, while you're at it crank up the psychological denial, too:

Everything you know about Iran is wrong, or at least more complicated than you think. Take the bomb. The regime wants to be a nuclear power but could well be happy with a peaceful civilian program (which could make the challenge it poses more complex). What's the evidence? Well, over the last five years, senior Iranian officials at every level have repeatedly asserted that they do not intend to build nuclear weapons.

Yeah, right. That's why Iranian generals are so excited about nuclear energy.

Oh, and this is good news, too. More diplomacy, please, since it is working so well with these regimes. (/sarcasm).

UPDATE: The Big O says that, "North Korea is recklessly challenging the world." Ok. So what are you going to do about it, kid? The punks are feeling lucky these days for some reason.
