I've Been Thinking:

Vice President Cheney just returned from a visit to the Middle East.
Many analysts are speculating that this trip was not a success.

I disagree.

In the whirl of response surrounding the vice presidential trip almost all the discussion has focused on a single issue:

Should the United States attack Iran.

Former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan said that an attack would be the worst thing for the US to do. Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov, also in the region at the very same time, said the very same thing.

Cheney's mission on this trip was to show that the US may indeed strike out at Iran. All the responses and all the comments prove that the Iranians are fearful of a US attack. That means the trip was a great success. Iran should not think they get a "pass" on this.

To quote from the Shakespearean play Hamlet Act 3:2:230
