Investors.com - Dither, Then Duck!: "Iran: Our policy against a regime of would-be nuclear terrorists has degenerated into 'duck and cover' atomic attack scenarios, as the secretary of state admits diplomatic failure. Welcome to Appeasement, U.S.A.
The U.S. government's attitude about Iran's obvious nuclear ambitions is getting so weirdly enmeshed in double-think, you can almost hear the twangy strains of 'The Twilight Zone' theme.
The U.S. Missile Defense Agency on Monday announced an upcoming simulation of an Iranian nuclear attack. Costing about $150 million, an anti-missile missile from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California will be aimed at a mock-Iranian missile fired from the Marshall Islands in the Pacific. Previous exercises have assumed North Korea as the aggressor, with a warhead taking longer to reach its U.S. target.
In Las Vegas, the Federal Emergency Management Agency is planning a simulated nuclear detonation for May involving 10,000 federal, state and local emergency personnel. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., with a tough re-election fight looming, wrote to Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano of his 'strenuous objections' to the drill. Seems the city's business and tourism figures are worried about it causing 'undue anxiety.'"
