Not Munich

++Eugene Robinson slams the Munich analogies in this afternoon's Post. Washington Monthly also has a run-own on who of the conservatives is calling the Iranian deal "another Munich". Charles Krauthammer was first off the block and Alex Castellanos, the GOP operative, was soon tweeting the news. Hard to see how a multi-national agreement supported by Russia,China,the EU, France and the UK could be capitulating to a country which doesn't have a nuclear weapon. Time reports that the Saudis are looking for a bomb now (which they have on convenient lay-away in Pakistan) the deal is done.

++Reuters/Ipsos this afternoon that shows 44% support for the Deal and 22% oppose. God knows what the remainder believe. But if the deal fails,49% are for increased sanctions, 31% support further diplomacy and only 20% support war. 

++It seems to me that those who oppose a diplomatic solution to the Iranian nuclear program should openly state their alternative.
