Iran’s MAD Strategy Has Strategic Rationale
In conjunction with Tuesday's report to be issued by the IAEA about Iran's nuclear facilities, please find our latest article on Iran's version of "Mutually Assured Destruction doctrine MAD" and how the Ayatollahs rationalize it. Bottom line: If Tehran can insure a delivery system that can hit US mainland or US strategic interests in the region, even though this may not insure Iranian equal response, it is seen as enough of a deterrence against Washington.

Attacking Libya Serves Iran’s Security Interests
What Qaddafi has done to his people is morally reprehensible, but why is it any different than events in Sudan, Zimbabwe, Côte d’Ivoire, or Bahrain? More importantly, how does intervention in the conflict meet vital American interests?
On the contrary, it appears more likely that intervention will harm America’s interests and strengthen those of its regional archenemy, [...]
Obama’s Strategic Paralysis: Weak To Our Enemies, Untrustworthy To Our Friends
As I see it the unfolding of events in Libya presages an America that is regarded as weak and ineffectual by own enemies and untrustworthy among our friends.
