Carter calls for money and commitment to US strength
The President urged Congress that a military buildup should be a top goal for the 1980s and warned the USSR has a war machine well beyond defense needs. He did not specify a price tag but urged resolve as the Iran Afghanistan crisis looms. He must act boldly, matching his words with deeds to reassure allies and deter Soviet threats. The Iowa Caucus results should guide wiser leadership.

U S lone action on Iran embargo risks backfire in data
The Carter administration vows unilateral sanctions after a Soviet veto blocks a UN embargo, but Iran's trade slump reduces vulnerability to any US action. Data from Commerce CIA and CRS show 1978 Iran imports of US machinery and transport gear dropped sharply in 1979, with prospects of continued hardship but not decisive pressure.
