A Grim Prognosis

For a Monday morning. From “Grim“:

I suspect that we will one day speak of the war in Iraq the way we speak of the Spanish Civil War — that is, rarely by comparison to the greater war that followed it. Peace is not in the cards. Things are going to get worse. Our enemies are glad to employ terrorists, who will try to bring the war to our homes. The wise man will prepare his sword, and the arm that may wield it.

Is Nasrallah Launching Iran’s Armageddon?

Omar (of the Iraqi blog Iraq the Model) is concerned that it is. It certainly can’t be rejected out of hand, given the insanities that have been spouting from Ahmadinejad’s mouth recently. He certainly seems of a mind to immanentize the Islamic eschaton.

Morons who think that I’m a right-wing neocon Christer will, of course, scratch their heads at this post, thinking that my only concern is that it will preempt the Rapture.
