Presidential candidate John Edwards told a Hollywood audience the biggest threat to world peace is that Israel may bomb Iran’s nuclear facilities. The logic goes something like this: If only Israel would allow themselves to be destroyed then they'd no longer be the greatest threat to world peace. UPDATE Feb 21, 2007 8:18 am : John Edwards’ presidential campaign wants to make it clear that he doesn’t consider Israel a threat to world peace. Edwards says one of the greatest short-term threats to world peace is Iran acquiring a nuclear weapon....  It just came out wrong. 1:19:27 PM

Regular readers of this blog know I am on the air with Charles Adler from time to time.   In my opinion, he is at his best when he is telling us how he sees the world.  I think he gets bogged down sometimes with the whole interview thing.  trustonlymulder seems to be making more than a few YouTube smackdowns (as he calls them), and he has published this one with Charles laying into Stephane Dion for not being able to handle himself against Stephen Harper.
