Negotiation 101: Iran

Among the many requirements for successful negotiation, the fundamental requirement for a successful outcome is that the other party can be trusted to fulfill their negotiated obligation.

Negotiate with a person who denies the Holocaust, says he wants to annihilate Israel, and makes it clear that he wants to obtain a nuclear bomb? Probably not a good idea. The result will be a nuke (or more) exploding somewhere in the middle east or in an American city or cities.

The President seemed to understand this when there was public pressure to talk with Iran's President Ahmadinejad and he refused. He resisted when the Iraq Study Group also recommended the same.

Now, we are going to talk to Iran. The goal is to persuade Iran to not build nukes. Fortunately, the President knows the scoop. No matter what Ahmadinejad says for public consumption, he will build a nuke and he will use it.

Ahmadinijad's branch of islam* believes they must help along what we call Armageddon. You just know he's going to create the mother of all world wars if he gets a nuke.

So, the ostensible reason the president directed discussions with Iran is to level with them. Stop your nuclear ambitions or we will destroy you. This language, Ahmadinejad understands. These discussions provide cover should we have to attack Iran. The president can say that we have explored all diplomatic options.

One cruise missile is all it takes and Ahmadinejad is out of power. We wouldn't have to invade.

Sure, a war with Iran is not ideal but letting them obtain a nuke is unthinkable and irresponsible.

*We do not capitalize anything associated with islam until when, and if, their believers decide to rejoin the human race.

John Edwards Blows It Again

We are watching with amusement the Democraps who are running for president. Lost yesterday among the Hillary vs. Barack Hussein Osama Obama's slap-down bitchfist, was another example of why John "Pretty-Boy" Edwards will never be president.

Mr. Edwards, according to Variety columnist, Peter Bart, said at a Hollywood fundraiser that the state of Israel, in mulling the bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities, might be the greatest short-term threat to world peace.

Did I write this comment was made at a Hollywood fundraiser?

What ethnic group predominates in Hollywood, Mr. Edwards?

Needless to say, the fundraiser quickly shut down and rightfully so. Israel is a long-standing friend of the United States. Israel has to endure a lot with all of the nut job muslims surrounding her who deny the holocaust occurred or promises to annihilate Israel.

Funny that Democraps do not yet realize that any of their presidential candidates are not electable as president. All the more fun to watch their stunned faces post-election day.

In a further signal that Democraps in congress are out-of-touch, an Edwards spokesman said the former one-term senator "...believes..." "...one of the greatest short-term threats to world peace is Iran acquiring a nuclear weapon." Trial lawyer Edwards may want to inform the House and Senate Democraps of this.
