Like Nixon in China, is it time for America to engage Iran? Why is the States so stubborn when it comes to talking with Iran?
Part of this post has to do with this letter Iran wrote to Bush, but this administration wrote off. I think there is an opportunity to open up a dialogue, or even send a diplomat to Tehran. It would go a long way in terms of solving this crisis. I mentioned Nixon above, but a lot of past US presidents have talked with their "enemies" (Eisenhower, Truman, Reagan)...I really don't understand this hardline attitude towards Iran.
