Iran Update
An update on the on-going campaign to attack Iran by Shrubbery and the Mayberry Machiavellis.
As Juan Cole points out, since 2003 Iran has been trying to arrange direct talks with the United States over various items of mutual interest.
While Dr. Cole notes that the “Iran as the banker of terrorism” was discredited some time ago, early this morning on the BBC World Service Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns was repeating the meme once again.
CNN reported today that Iran wants the US to stop the bluster, and let’s talk. The Christian Science Monitor points to the reality that the biggest sticking point on the Iranian side is the lack of a US security guarantee for Iran.
