Bottom line for Iran: war in the absence of a priori capitulation to Bush administration demands.
In Rovian language for domestic politics, this means "we create our own reality."
"Bush doesn’t seem to get that one can’t establish a Palestinian state without simultaneously negotiating with the Syrians. He doesn’t seem to get that knocking back Iran’s pretensions in the region requires a rapprochement with Syria to put distance between Assad and Iran. He doesn’t seem to get that none of the major objectives we have in the region are possible without the robust support of Russia and China, two states we are not tending very well."

Well...the rest of the world seems to get that the USA isn't needed, it's only a problem, and I think they have all decided to move on those problems + their own, without Uncle Sam...at least according to what I am reading from the Davos coverage....in other words, thanks for the lessons in gobal capitalism Sammy...we can take ti from here...see ya around.
