NeoCon Watch

The real intent of the neocons who cooked up the war in Iraq is to smoke another one past you and the Foreign Relations Committee and ultimately against the president. They will surely propose an amendment "strengthening" the treaty that will remove the "inalienable right" of NPT members to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes (under perpetual monitoring). North Korea was quite prepared to do this several years ago, until it observed Iraq – a fellow "rogue state" according to the president – in full compliance with the NPT and getting bombed and occupied anyway.
