In answer to Barack Obama’s prayers for a “positive response to his outreach for opening a dialogue with Iran by the end of the year,” some withering disapproval from Leon Panetta, who calls Iran a “destabilizing force in the Middle East,” and a really scary warning from Hillary Clinton that the U.S. is going “to persuade the Iranian regime that they will actually be less secure if they proceed with their nuclear weapons program,” Tehran today successfully launched a ballistic missile capable of reaching Israel.
