The Iranian War Machine And Other Golden Oldies
02/23/2012
ack in the summer of 2006, war with Iran fever swept Washington when Israel got into a dustup with Lebanese Shi'ites dug into Southern Lebanon. I did a lot of research back then and discovered that … well, fewer and fewer people outside Washington are really all that obsessed with war anymore. So, here are my half-dozen year old postings. We now have over a half-decade of history to test who was right and who was wrong in 2006: responsible foreign policy experts or me. So, who was it?
- The Iranian War Machine
- The small size of the Iranian economy and military
- The Middle-Eastern Powder Thimble
- War: The Human Race Just Isn’t Trying Very Hard Anymore
- The Decline in the Need for Global Force Projection
- Why doesn’t the Kurdish "state-within-a-state" justify war too?
- The Logic of Nuclear Genocide
- Hezbollah’s Schmutzkrieg!
- How many aircraft carriers does the Islamic World have?
