Like most problems anyone in the world is having today, there is no more road down which to kick this can

Bryan Preston at PJ Media puts the latest ratcheting-up of tensions between Iran and the West in stark perspective. The comment thread under his article is particularly edifying. It's a lot like threads that get going here under posts of a foreign policy / national security nature. There are certain types of observant citizens who really think that conservatives itch for war. Preston steps into the fray to basically ask what viable alternatives to the SWIFT sanction exist.

The lessons of history reinforce the indisputability of the maxim that appeasement of rogue powers is the surest way to invite horror onto the world stage.
