President Hassan Rouhani called Tuesday for "fair and constructive" nuclear talks with world powers as Iran marked the anniversary of the 1979 Islamic revolution with massive rallies that featured a new American target for their traditional "death to" slogans.
I totally believe Rounani wants constructive talks. Yes, Rouhani wants us to talk while he constructs nuclear weapons. Because it is only fair that he has them, too.
And that new target for "death to" slogans?
Oh, that would be the State Department official designated to talk to the Iranians about the issue:
Besides the usual chants of "Down with the U.S.!" and "Death to Israel!" many demonstrators took aim at Wendy Sherman, the U.S. undersecretary of state for political affairs, who has frequently led U.S. delegations in nuclear talks with Tehran.
Ah! Our partners in diplomacy!
This will work out just swell.
