Joy, we have a President-Elect who wants to take our ICBMs offline and Iran is close to having "the bomb."

Iran poses the greatest foreign policy challenge to the new president with Tehran on course to produce a nuclear bomb in the first year of an Obama administration, an unprecedented coalition of top think tanks warned yesterday.

Barack Obama must follow through on his promises of direct talks with Tehran and engage the Middle East region as a whole if he is to halt a looming crisis that could be revisited on the United States, the experts warned.

“Diplomacy is not guaranteed to work: it is not,” Richard Hass, one of the authors said. “But the other options – military action or living with an Iranian weapon are sufficiently unattractive for it to warrant serious commitment.”

Doesn't that make you feel all warm and cozy inside? I am curious to hear Obama's response to this, I am sure he will have some sort of speech or press conference from the "Office of the President-Elect."
