"The debate over Iraq is not about politics. It is about national security. It should be clear that our national security requires Congress to send a clear message to Iraq and the world: America is united in its determination to eliminate forever the threat of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction." -- John Edwards, Oct 10, 2002

Who's naive now?
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is catching considerable flak from competitors in her own party for flip-flopping on Iran. In July she blasted Barack Obama for saying he would meet with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, calling his stance "irresponsible and naive." On Thursday Clinton said: "I would engage in negotiations with Iran, with no conditions, because we don't really understand how Iran works. We think we do, from the outside, but I think that is misleading."

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is catching considerable flak from competitors in her own party for flip-flopping on Iran. In July she blasted Barack Obama for saying he would meet with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, calling his stance "irresponsible and naive." On Thursday Clinton said: "I would engage in negotiations with Iran, with no conditions, because we don't really understand how Iran works. We think we do, from the outside, but I think that is misleading." Obama was quick to retort, "I'm not sure any of us know exactly where she is standing on this issue. But I can tell you this - when I'm president... the world will always know where I stand." This is a bit rich coming from Obama, given that he introduced a bill to impose sanctions on Iran, yet he chose to be absent on (and said he would have voted against) a bipartisan provision backed by three-quarters of the US Senate to designate the Iranian Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist organization. The effect of that amendment was precisely to tighten economic sanctions against the Iranian regime. There was nothing in it that even hinted at authorization of the use of force. Yet Obama bowed to the hard left in his party and opposed the strategy he had supposedly endorsed, that of tightening sanctions as the primary hope of averting both military action and a nuclear Iran. Clinton sensibly voted for that amendment, and now seems to be tacking the other way with her pledge to engage Teheran's Islamofascist regime.
