HANOI – Peace is good, but it takes time. Of all the similarities between the wars in Vietnam and Iraq, perhaps the most painful is the wreckage America will eventually leave behind when it’s imperial adventure is finally over. Whether the last U.S. soldiers leave Mesopotamia this year or 10 years from now, they will …

Multiple pieces of independent evidence suggest that America is embarked in a premeditated path that will lead inexorably to the use of nuclear weapons against Iran in the very near future. Facing clear evidence of this peril, we cannot wait for the final proof – the smoking gun – in the form of a mushroom …
