The first casualty of war is the truth.

Do not be deceived by these tit for tats and optimistic prognostications. They may not be real?

The odds are that they are not.

Of course, it should have no bearing on this White House? The first casualty of peace is truth.

Everyone wants to think the best. That it is over. That we will find a diplomatic way to escape from this international crisis.

Let's hope they are right.

Maybe with chucking missiles for the time being, but last night's missile barrage, to Iran, doesn't equal the loss of their #2 man. Not even close.
