Iran has not been negotiating in good faith for over 3 years now Like any other country, yours included, Iran "negotiates" for the benefit of its own people. That this sometimes includes lying, cheating, and defying international law and order should not come as a singular surprise to someone who has watched the Bush administration lie and cheat and defy the UN in order to invade Iraq, among other things. There you go again.........I wish you would stop posting the truth on this thread. Its upsetting some and scaring the others. How are things in Monaco? Has Prince Albert come out yet? ;~) ted

I've already answered your question about the differences between Iran and Pakistan. If you are having a neighborhood spat with your neighbor and he is visiting you complaining about your dog shitting on his lawn, and just then a man comes by with a gun and points it at your head, and then your neighbor quickly turns and launches a diving tackle of the man with a gun, do you punch your neighbor? Or do you help him subdue the imminent threat and then get back to arguing with your neighbor after the hardcase is taken care of? Same goes with Pakistan and Iran. We have real issues with Pakistan, but we have to deal with Al Qaeda and Iran first. Pakistan is willing to help us do that. We can put diplomatic pressure on Pakistan along the way, but we don't need to invade Pakistan, because their dictator is our ally in the short term.
