First of all, thank you for being candid in your reply. I think Obama makes some very good points in his statement to lead diplomatic discussions with enemies of the US, Bugs. Note that he does not say that this is the only thing that he will do. I am pretty surprised that you mention this at all. Perhaps you are worried about the no preconditions part? Opening a dialog without preconditions is a good way to get a two-way channel going. What one does from there is important and telling, not beforehand. Normally, even enemies communicate with one another, through various channels. It is well documented that the Bush Administration has pretty much ignored most of those channels of communications with Iran - the reason(s) why for this would probably fill a book, and I suppose only Mr. Bush or his Staff could really answer this. Not that they have a track record of telling the truth. I do hope you are aware of this. You know that Nixon decided to communicate with China. Dialog is a very, very important tool, one that should not be underestimated for a number of reasons, both politically and along the lines of national security. My views about Iran have not changed, not at all. However, with our troops currently involved in [b]TWO[/b] wars that show no sign of abating, I do not think it is wise or prudent to attempt to do anything with Iran militarily right now. I'm curious what you think the US should do about Iran with the current situation as it is. Are you honestly suggesting to open up a third front, another war, in the Middle East? The Middle East is already very instable due to the two wars currently going on there (not to mention other ongoing conflicts). I don't think it is wise or prudent to throw more gasoline on the fire.
