second nuke IRAN so that
the uncertainty about the future supply will go away.

Well, that was more or less the theory about the invasion of Iraq,
which is still pumping less than it did before the invasion. In other
words, the war exacerbted the shortage instead of allieviating it.

Although I'm not in favor of nuking Iran, I must point out that you're
judging the results in Iraq with typical American impatience.

The outcome of this war won't be known for decades. I believe history
will look favorably on the decision to intervene when we did -- as it
will when we are forced to do something in Iran.

Our attempts to nail democracy onto the feet of natives who clearly are
barely out of the stone age may be looked upon less favorably, however.
In retrospect, we probably should have done things the British way.
