Buchanan Speaks Truth About Iran

Pat Buchanan has been impressing me lately. He’s come out as fiercely anti-neocon and has been producing some excellent articles. Here’s a short quote capturing his opinion of “dangerous” Iran:

Time to return to Planet Earth. Ahmadinejad is not only jeered at Columbia but at colleges in Tehran. He is openly attacked by rivals. He does not control the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. He does not decide on war or peace. He runs a regime with 2 percent of U.S. gross domestic product, no nukes and no navy or air force to rival ours. He is a Shi’ite in a Sunni world. How is this 5 foot, 4 inch Persian going to strong-arm the United States, Russia and China – not to mention an Israel with 300 nukes – into his “new order”?

Refreshing. Too bad Fox News has more of an audience.
