Why do some people insist on believing that if only we can somehow come up with the right words and bribes we can convince the mullahs to give up their ambitions for nuclear weapons? And why do we think that the Russians and Chinese share our desire to stop Iran from going nuclear?
The Euros keep trying:
World powers are considering dropping U.N. Security Council discussion of Iran's nuclear program if Tehran agrees to suspend uranium enrichment, but could push for sanctions backed by the threat of force if the Islamic state refuses, diplomats said Saturday.
But the Iranians refused this latest attempt to bridge the gap between our desire to stop them from gaining nuclear weapons and Iran's desire to nuke us (or at least to use nukes to gain a shield to just use regular old high explosive bombs against us):
Later Saturday, Iran's foreign minister rejected that possible approach to resolving its standoff with the international community, saying that Tehran would not give up uranium enrichment.
The mullahs are uninterested in anything but our complete surrender to their desire for nuclear missiles. Whether we talk to them or not, the Iranians will push toward their goal. They talk to us only to buy time. My only question is why are we talking to them?
And you thought religion was a touchy topic with them.
