Wishful thinking
MADRID, June 1 — Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice sought today to minimize any sense of division within the Bush administration over Iran after the head of the United Nations nuclear watchdog agency delivered a pointed new warning against what he called the “new crazies” pushing for military action against Tehran.
“The President of the United States has made it clear that we are on a course that is a diplomatic course,” Ms. Rice said here. “That policy is supported by all of the members of the cabinet, and by the vice president of the United States.”
Somehow, I have a distinct feeling that this smacks more of wishful thinking than of reality. Or, of course, it may be an attempt by Condi to establish "facts on the ground" before Cheney can go too far. In any event, I'm sure we haven't heard the end of this debate.
