The Good Guys

Ironic that I just mistyped 'the good goys...'

In the debate tonight, someone queried 'what will you do if Iran attacks Israel?'
Which then lead to a discussion of nuclear proliferation.

My questions are these:
1) Why do we get to mandate who the 'good guys' are, and not a multinational group such as the U.N? I'm talking specifically here of our impending nuclear sponsorship of India; yet if Russia so sponsored a nation of their choice, as the kids say, shit would go down. Yes, I understand that India is viewed as stable, allaying fears of the misuse of a future government or dictator, but that we can condone such double standards when it would seem that's an important mediation the UN provides is nothing but hubris.

2) I wish they would ask the candidates, "What would you do if Israel nukes Iran?"

An interesting look at the Public Records Requests made of Sarah Palin's office since her VP pick. Especially the top meta-request, for a list of such requests made and their completion status.

Last, a followup to the above, on Palin's staff's delay of releasing her emails.
