"It doesn't take a genius to recognize that Iran was offering an olive branch. Why was it dismissed out of hand?"

Simple. Iran was part of the Axis of Evil. The AoE was created to have an enemy to confront. And you need an enemy, real or not, to distract people while you steal the country blind. If it hadn't of been for 9/11, we still would be in the same position with the Patriot Act, invading Iraq, NSA wiretapping and all, but instead of fighting terrorists, we'd be confronting "rogue states".

Afghanistan probably wouldn't have been invaded.
