Missing the Point on Iran: "Note to SecState Rice:

Making token gestures to support the EU3-Iran negotiations, is only a really, really, weak beginning of a coherent Iran policy.

Look, Iran is being asked to do something that’s not legally required, (i.e. give up its fuel cycle), so we have to provide serious incentives. I don’t think the WTO and aircraft parts incentives are going to cut it. Iranian officials, as well as experts who have recently spoken with said officials, seem to agree."
