of nukes and knowledge
By now, everyone knows about the 2003 NIE that said Iran stopped its nuclear weapons program.
And if you watch the news or walk the blogosphere a bit, it's clear everyone is convinced that this is the correct intelligence and that the Bush Administration simply is looking for excuses to go to war with Iran.
Everyone, that is, except the British.
Here's a thought for the day:
Ignoring intelligence because you want to go to war is irresponsible and dangerous.
Ignoring intelligence because you want to avoid war is just as irresponsible and perhaps even more dangerous.
