A couple of our "allies" in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, told Vice President Dick Cheney that we should give more time for negotiations with Iran in order to resolve the nuclear dispute with that nation. So says AP.
Uh, fellas, Iran and nukes have been linked together for a number of years. It's been clear to Iran that during that time there has been significant international displeasure over its nuclear intentions.
My guess is that by giving Iran more time, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and other Arab states will see their goal achieved. A nuclear armed Iran as a counter-weight to Israel, a nation that almost certainly has "the bomb."
But be careful of what you wish for: An Iran with nuclear missiles might have more than one target: The Shi'ite Muslims and the Sunni Muslims don't get along very well.
