I do think that it's only a matter of time. I think it was in the movie Peacemaker when the female agent said "I'm not worried about the dictator who wants to add 10 missiles to his arsenal, I'm worried about the bastard who wants just one". Iran reminds me of that statement for some reason.

The Doomsday Clock has already considered Iran into it's equation two years ago. The only thing that worries me is the SOB has already made statements about wiping other countries off of the face of the earth and denied the Holocaust happened. He's a nutjob, in power, just like Saddam was.

I don't know if it was an intelligence failure in Iraq. Just because they didn't find them, doesn't mean they didn't exist. It was debated for a year in public, plenty of time to move/relocate/hide them. They may still be there. They may be somewhere else. They may have never existed. Hopefully, we won't find out the hard way.

For those not familiar with the Doomsday clock, the time-line is a good read.

It's now 5 minutes to midnight. It hasn't been that close since 1984.
