The Dangerous Iran

In today’s “On the Square” article, Iran’s Nuclear Weapon Capability , former deputy assistant secretary of defense for combating weapons of mass destruction and negotiations policy Jack David writes of the dangers facing the world and the hard decisions Iran’s nuclear capabilities require. His report offers readers a good test case for a reflection and debate on the proper uses of power and military force.

Meanwhile, discussion of David B. Hart’s The Perniciously Persistent Myths of Hypatia and the Great Library continues. If you haven’t looked at the comments, many of them provide a good quick education in the history Dr. Hart has written on, and in the ways different people read history.
