The Iranians in coming years will develop nuclear weapons. The chance of their using those weapons is greater than zero. This is an issue that is truly serious. Now, what do we want? What do they want? How are we going to get what we want?

We have problems with both Iran AND North Korea. In neither case do I see any talks being conducted. That is not in our interests. When we are conducting talks directly with both North Korea and Iran, then we can parse the details of the talks. But right now we are failing to talk at all. This is typical of this Administration -- an Administration that long ago decided that the world's sole superpower has no further need for diplomacy.
