Sorry, Gorby folded when he saw the panty wearing libs would not stop Pres Reagan from deploying nukes in Europe and the buildup of the US military
Much like today with the terrorists, Gorby was hoping to win the cold war with the help of the Dems, and thank God - they both lost
I guess the details regarding that could be debated further. But you still manage to drive my point in now:
Whatever the reason was for Gorbatjovs actions - those actions were the actions of a moderate force on hardcore communism.
Apply this to Iran.
They have ALL rational reasons to change their stance. Even more and much clearer reasons than Gorbatjov had. And they won't. Because they are hardcore muslims - not moderate.
