		<description><![CDATA[When I posted Wrong but mostly right back in June of last year, I wrote, “Iran has reached and passed the threshold. The implacable mathematics of the enrichment process decrees that Israel must attack soon.”  Now, if you will, is “soon”.  Much has happened in the interim.  First, an internal Israeli policy [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This piece has been languishing since January of this year.  With the addition of some new information last month, it’s time to unburden myself and clear my hard drive.
From January
I’ve been waiting a very long time to post this – there is now enough information to verify that Iran was attacked by Israel and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Via Instapundit, I found an article titled On Asteroid Defense and Constitutional Law.  In in, the writer, Pejman Yousefzadeh, responds to a challenge from liberal writer Mark Kleiman for some “libertarian-leaning” person to explain why the doctrine of enumerated powers would not prevent the Federal Government from “shooting down an asteroid.”
Yousefzadeh leads off by [...]]]></description>

Kaplan, however, errs later in his article [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Introduction
I saw Titanic on opening day, 19 December 1997 – my birthday.  The movie immediately generated a welter of discussion among critics and cineastes alike.  I eventually weighed in with my own “quasi-review”, which I posted on the discussion group “rec.arts.movies.current-films”.  The review was titled “TITANIC: Some Reflections”
James Cameron’s new movie, Avatar, [...]]]></description>

On the political front, though I’ve considered commenting on the Obama Administration’s foreign policy at various times, I didn’t really have anything to add beyond what readers could find elsewhere.

		<description><![CDATA[I just came across this article by geologist Jeffrey Park in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.  Park says that the seismic data indicate the latest North Korean test was another fizzle, concluding the yield was “likely 4 kilotons or smaller”.
According to the author bio in the sidebar, Park seems to be qualified to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Back in October 2006, I speculated (accurately) that North Korea’s nuke test was a “fizzle”.  Yesterday, North Korea (aka the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea – DPRK) conducted another test, this time achieving a yield of aproximately 20 kilotons.  As I said in the 2006 article:

North Korea has repeatedly shown itself to be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) published a study 14 March 2009 laying out an Israeli attack scenario against Iranian nuclear sites.  It is very similar to my Scenario 1 from 12 February 2007, which describes a direct strike on the key Iranian nuke sites.
There are some differences between the CSIS and [...]]]></description>
