What if there was a SNIE? Just curious.
OK. There are a plethora of Leftinistra news outlets and bloggers going totally Berzerkely over this NIE on Iran, whether or not Iran has, had or ever will get or try and get their grubby little Jihadi murdering mitts on a possible nuke to either blow themselves off the face of the Earth or to wipe Israel off the face of the Earth.
Most of the BDS bloggers and "journalists", as usual, plunged to their "discredibility" (is that a word?) with lightning speed to be the FIRST to Bash Bush and label GWB as the War Mongerer of all time. I wonder how they feel now knowing that once again, the dumbest man on the planet has beat them. I doubt they will ever learn. GWB beat them and he didn't even do anything. They beat themselves up via BDS.
The socialist and anti-American political junkies and pundits just knew that GWB had been sitting on the latest NIE on Iran for a very long time so GWB could beat those war drums. Such was not the case and even the WaPo explains this.
In a nutshell, the NIE was released by the White House a mere 5 days after they received it. I wouldn't call that "sitting on it" for over a year. They got the latest and greatest and 5 days later, there it is. As many of us level-headed types know, it is much better if you check things out first before you prove to the world that your credibility is questionable at best if you leap to BDS driven conclusions and print the wrong hate speech, as it were.
There is an excellent article written at Right Wing Nut House, complete with the links required to discover what really happened. Hell, if my old friend ajacksonian agrees with RWNH, that is good enough for me.

Book of Matthew, chapter 24 (slight return):
And as Jesus sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?And Jesus answered and said unto them, ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars.
Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
And there shall be Kagans, and they shall be calling for diplomatic relations with Iran.
Revelation, chapter 6 (slight return):
Stock up on water people.
And when the Lamb had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Kagan (no, the other one), and he was calling for diplomatic relations with Iran.
