They may not win this time. But they'll be back.' ... He added that Iran is pressing on all fronts in the Middle East, perhaps in preparation for a showdown over its nuke plans or over the Straights of Harmuz. Don't know about that. But I do know one other thing: Iran is not on the defensive (see 'Bush has a two-header now' below). ... Michael Totten has more. ...
