Tehran Claims 20% Enrichment of Uranium--Washington D.C. So Happy It Wet Itself

The Iranian President's claim of enriching Uranium in order to make medical grade uranium able to be upgraded through repeated distilleries to plutonium proof is a cause for continuing U.S. policy planning pouting. I feel the government's seemingly meaningless comments from Washington on the Iranian issue have little effect on Iranian policy--yet they condition the people of the United States to years of dire, looming auspices of the high country.

The administration could make the day of investors in conservative verbiage from politicians if they adopted more real-politik circumstances regarding Iran, Pakistan and others. At least NPR could abstain from reporting what could be private communications to Tehran. PR posturing is more proof of posturing than of effectiveness.

Since Washington policy is fundamentally to enrich a rich global corporatist crowd instead of the people of the United States, it argues about market access more so than a moon base or profound ecological economic restructuring or the need for good jobs for the perennially unemployed.

Washington's perennial anti-missile defenses/cancel missile defenses, sanctions that don't work and investment of trillions to train muslim militias in Afghanistan and Pakistan seem dubiously destined for success. I wish them luck and hope that peaceful nuclear non-proliferation is the future actualization of politics. In the meantime intelligent thought counts too as well as reactionary bluster.

The Department of Homosexual Militant Defense might recollect that if Satan is one's defender, then one has no defense. I marvel at the administration's insensitivity on international relations as a perennial theme. Walk softly and carry a big stick was good enough for Theodore Roosevelt.
