New NIE: Iran still not building a nuke; what about Dear Leader?

This news won't shut up Likud and further right in Israael, nor the neocons/Amen corner in the U.S. The big question is, will it give Dear Leader more backbone to not increase the already-ridiculous covert activity against Iran?

Answer: Not likely. More by far than Bill Clinton, Obama is our first, not neolib president, but first true techie president. Given that covert ops are now, more and more, stuff like drones, liberal fears that these toys would make war more appealing, like video war games, are coming home to roost.


Watch how Team Obama spins this story in coming days. Once again, you'll think you're listening to BushCo.
