GREGORY SCOBLETE: Forget Iran: “The truth is Pakistan represents a far greater danger to the U.S. than Iran, at least for the foreseeable future. Let us count the ways. Pakistan is a nuclear power. Iran is not. Pakistan has a proven track record of proliferation, including a dalliance with al Qaeda.”

Maybe instead of fighting proliferation we should embrace it — nukes in Taiwan and Poland, huge thermonuclear weapons in Israel, etc. Why should we be the only ones trying to keep the lid on while other alleged civilized powres help Iran, North Korea, etc.?

Okay, it’s a bad idea. Letting people worry that we might embrace it if we don’t get more cooperation might not be, though. . . .
