The Iranian nuclear program

Yesterday, the news was out that the international agency which oversees nuclear non-proliferation matters had announced that Iran had put a new batch of centrifuges to work in its nuclear program. The strange thing about the news was that many of those reporting it professed surprise at hearing that Iran was expanidning its program to get nuclear weapons. It was almost as if the news people had gone along with the view that since the Obama administration was doing next to nothing about Iran's development of nuclear weapons, then there must be no such program.

Well, Surprise!!!! Whether or not Obama choses to bury his head in the sand and ignore the Iranian nuclear program, that program is going forward. Very soon, we will be looking at an Iran armed with nuclear weapons. When that happens, the world will have changed forever. We will all be able to thank Barack Obama for that.
