Mercury Rising

First the important stuff. On Iran: The Center for Strategic and International Studies said the Iranian Navy, including the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, has failed to procure the platforms or weapons required to block the Straits of Hormuz, the passage for 60 percent of the world's oil trade. In a report, the Washington-based center said the United States could block any Iranian attempt to attack Gulf shipping, particularly from the sea. This is a major miscalculation. Next, on the WaPo boards, the following excerpts are from the Arkin blog. The WaPo as you will recall, doesn't allow any personal attacks or profanity.

Thompson | April 25, 2006 11:18 PM This just in from the Washington Post: "Americans continue to uselessly dissect the motives for invading Iraq -- when it is too late to do anything about it -- while failing to debate the far more fateful consequences of conflict with Iran when it might still be prevented." No Sh_t? And this is where most of the useless dissection is perpetuated - by the Washington Post!!! HA HA HA HA HA HA Posted by: Raymon F.

Posted by: to the randome poster... | April 25, 2006 10:25 PM "Who did the leak of secret torture prisons hurt?" are you from the Soviet Union? are you some kind of a monster? all that aside, I figured initially it was a leak by the CIA or another agency to use as a "We've got suchnsuch stored in a secret prison, that no one has access to" so they could claim to have captured one of their agents but you couldn't visit and see if they were really there...
