So what kind of confrontation is really taking place? Is it a war of egos as Repo says, is it a cold war as David E. Sanger and Elaine Sciolino say, is it going to be a conventional or nuclear war as Seymour Hersh suggests, or will international diplomacy work? It's hard to tell based on the war of the trolls taking place in this thread. I mean, there's better things to split hairs over than which newspaper has a better Persian to English dictionary.
