  "It was very important for him to project that because that was what kept him, in his mind, in power. That capability kept the Iranians away. It kept them from reinvading Iraq," Piro says.

• ASJ with an excellent quote about constructive criticism from R' Pam.
• Nephtuli sums up very well the issues with the 'wig story' surrounding Chaim Berlin.
