Analysis: If US Has Proof of Iran Plot, UN Can Be Won Over

Counter-analysis: No they can't.

Even-more-counter analysis: So why waste our time, and potentially expose anti-terror intel techniques, weakening our defensive posture?

Bonus-counter-analysis: Just to get the UN to go along with more ineffective sanctions, which they won't by the way.

Bargain-counter-analysis: Which of course is why, this pathetic administration will go groveling to the UN and present all their evidence.

For nothing.

"They haven't settled on a game plan yet," a council ambassador told Reuters. "They're considering all options. More sanctions, a resolution, a condemnation, it's all possible."

Look I'm not pressing for B-2s over Tehran. But begging the UN for cooperation on this isn't worth it. As my dad used to say "Son, that juice just ain't worth the squeeze."

Then he swiped my yard work cash.

I never really got the connection between those two things.

Smart diplomacy begins at the dinner table.
