Has the time come to send American diplomats back to Iran? | Al Jazeera America

Yes,unless you are either A. a neo con intent on war with Iran or B. an Israel firster who is only defending Israels wants and wishes.

 

[bendog]

Yes, but AIPAC and the neocons will destroy any pol who suggests such a thing.

Yes, with a suitcase Nuke under each arm.

And with you escorting them

Depends on what kind of discounts we can get on some long term oil contracts.

Yes. It is more important to engage diplomatically with one's enemies than one's friends.

It is a common mistake to assume that exchanging diplomatic missions is a token of friendship. All it is is a recognition that the other country exists.

Last time we had an Embassy in Iran, it didn't go all that well.

Or don't you remember?

We had a coward as president back then, too.

Within an hour of a REAL Man being sworn in, the Iranians released the hostages they'd held for 444 days.

They didn't want any part of a Republican president.

dimocraps? After LBJ, they've all been cowards. To the man. Every one of them.

And the one we have infesting the office today isn't even a Man. He's a ***.

Word.

No wonder you boys like him so much

 

[bendog]

Well, the ironic thing is that despite Iran's obvious human rights abuses and theocratic leanings, can anyone name a more democratic arab/Persian country?

Turkey, but Turkey has closer ties to the 19th century European powers.

And, ironically, I'm not sure W shouldn't be given some credit. The Iraq invasion was a debacle for our longstanding use of "friendly" regiemes to offset potential enemies. But, perhaps inadvertently, W seems to have set off a push in Iran to be seen as "reformist" in the region. Iran and Iraq in a race for whom can be seen as more democratic. LOL

But the last thing Israel wants to see is democratic republics in the ME. So, we'll not be sending diplomats to Iran anytime soon.

Another one who only sees things his way and doesn't realize the history behind events. I suggest you go back and read up on the 1950's coup in Iran pushed by and financed by the CIA.

 

[Katzndogz]

Yes because America likes to see American diplomats hanging from a gibbett,

 

[natstew]

Write Diplomat on the nukes before sending them.

Anyone who thinks we should send Diplomats to Iran is just plain stupid!!

So Carter should have denied the Shah access for medical care, or he should have turned him over to the Ayatollah?

Ray-Gun had no part in the negotiated settlement that brought all the hostages home alive.

They wanted Ray-gun as the US President. A right wing reactionary would bolster recruitment.

Pretty tough to call a man who volunteered for duty on one of the first Atomic powered Submarines a coward.

It just irks the right so much that Carter was right. From decriminalizing marijuana laws to the need to reduce our dependence on foreign sources of energy.

Understand?

I helped write a ******* book on it, asswipe.

Iran has always been trouble for us.

During WWII, Iran was secretly helping the National SOCIALISTS in Germany and we finally had to invade them.

After the War, they 'nationalized', which is commie-speak for STOLE, the British-owned oil industry and we had to do something or they would have gone over to the Soviets.

You're just a stupid hack, unworthy of my time, intellect or instruction.

Do some reading yourself, moron.

Or get your mommy to read to you. Whatever.

**** Iran and **** anybody who wants to make nice with them.

We're going to completely lose the MidEast and Americans will die in a future War because of it.

We had it under control until the scumbags in the White House today TOTALLY fucked it up.

Of one thing we can be sure, when there's fighting to be done, you'll be nowhere to be found.

Oh you mean like how the leaders in Iran feel about the right for Israel to exist? Got it.
I'm not 'negotiating' with anyone who is so full of hate they refuse to except the fact that Israel has any right to even exist. Period.

Stupid ******* *****. President of The United States of America (and the 2nd greatest ever behind only George Washington) Ronald Wilson Reagan had dozens of people working on the hostage negotiations.

MANY more than did the cowardly **** jimmy the peanut. Who had NONE.

It was secret because it was probably illegal, but they were in the negotiation process up to their necks.

President of The United States, Ronald Wilson Reagan told the assahollahs through back-channels in no uncertain terms that they wouldn't like what happens if they still have the American Hostages within an hours of him taking office.

The assahollahs believed him.

And it's a good thing for them that they did.

Nobody believes anything gutless ****** obama says. Putin laughs at him. Assad scoffs at him. Maduro in Venezuela makes fun of him and Iran is stuffing the agreement up his ass while we speak.

They already said they're not going to honor the agreement they've already made with the gutless, lying **********-in-chief obama.

dimocraps shouldn't even be involved in Foreign Policy questions.

It's like letting proven cowards negotiate an armistice.

In fact, it is VERY much like that.

No it isn't like that.... It IS that

I'm sure you did numb nuts. We can ALL feel safer knowing whack jobs such as yourself aren't at the helm of this country and the right people are. Ones with more brains that don't have to compensate for a small penis by starting wars and dropping nukes on everyone they disagree with. We never OWNED the middle east so its kind of hard to lose something we never owned and never will. Oh and you are absolutely right I refuse to fight for this country as I see absolutely NOTHING this country can fight for that I agree with...Iraq in Israels interest both times,Afghanistan over the poppy trade. So nope...nothing in it for me.

Yes, Jordan.

I disagree with your last point. If Iran and the Arab states became democratic republics that is a chance that Israel could live in peace. But they won't so there isn't.

 

[Katzndogz]

There is no danger whatsoever that Iran and the arab states can become democratic republics.

 

[Edgetho]

There is no danger whatsoever that Iran and the arab states can become democratic republics.

No, but they could have become Constitutional Monarchies. Like (most don't know it) much of Europe is.

That would have been a step in the right direction, at least.

 

[RandomVariable]

Right now there is money being made from hating Iran. More money would be made from working with Iran but industry is always short sighted.
