This past week President Obama hosted his big Nuclear Summit, welcoming leaders from all over the world (except for Israel, of course – Obama seems intent on breaking up with our ally int he Middle East).

Well, this is a fine how-do-you-do for a press that was completely sycophantic for Obama, did his bidding, published whatever he, Plouffe, or Axelrod claimed about Obama without EVER bothering to look it up (except for a very, very few intrepid reporters, like John Kass and Lynn Sweet, both out of Chicago).

Hillary held meetings today, along with a press conference. In “U.S. urges cooperation against militants,” the Los Angeles Times reports: “As a summit with Pakistan and Afghanistan opens, Hillary Clinton expresses regret over civilian casualties from a military strike in Afghanistan, and promises an investigation. …” UPDATE #1: Here’s CNN’s coverage of the press conference: [...]

Yet the Pakistanis are sending in token police and soldiers to fight the Taliban, and rapidly ceding large areas: Embedded video from CNN Video As I write this, the CNN video and transcript aren’t up, [...]

Many experts on global conflict and dangers, and he/she will tell you that the number one threat to the world is not just the proliferation but the existence of nuclear weapons.
