President Obama issued a statement to Iran that said in part, "...the United States of America wants to move beyond this past, and seeks a relationship with the Islamic Republic of Iran based upon mutual interests and mutual respect."*
What? Now, let's see. What could be our mutual interests?
World peace? No, not a big concept in Iran.
Reducing carbon emissions? Not so much.
Converting the word to Islam by threat of the sword? I don't think Obama has signed on for that.
Destruction of Israel? Wait a minute...nah, couldn't be, could it?
