Goodness, I hope this report isn’t true:
The United States is opposed to enacting a new set of financial sanctions against Iran that are due to be discussed in the G8 summit next week, diplomatic officials in New York reported Friday.
According to officials, sanctions against Iran are expected to top the G8’s agenda. Sources are also predicting a pointed debate between the heads of the industrialized nations over an appropriate response to Iranian authorities’ suppression of reformist demonstrations in Iran led by Mir Hossein Mousavi and other Iranian opposition leaders…
…diplomatic sources in New York reported that American officials are working behind the scenes to prevent new sanctions from being imposed against Iran.
U.S. officials claimed that a tough stance toward Iran could backfire, bringing about an opposite outcome to that desired by those who support such measures.
The Obama administration, according to the diplomatic sources, has discarded the notion of direct talks with Iran. However, the United States is still interested in re-engaging Iran through the renewed discussion of its nuclear program through the five permanent United Nations Security Council members and Germany.
Obama, if you are doing this, then you are a fool; and your folly will eventually be paid for by human blood. You can’t do this – you can’t back off on sanctions and then hope to negotiate a nuclear agreement with Iran: if you back off, you see, all you’ll do is convince the blood-soaked mullahs that you are a coward and that they can get away with anything as long as you are in office. Doesn’t matter if, deep down inside, you have an American backbone – the damage will be done and no one will ever believe you have it. And like the appeasers of old, you might be forced to show a bit of steel at the worst possible moment.
I drove around town a bit today and the American flag is still flown proudly by Americans – don’t make betray the trust of those who showed their patriotism today..
