ArmsControlWonk: Rohani Letter

Rohani Letter

posted Wednesday May 10, 2006 under iran by jeffrey

Not to be outdone, Hassan Rohani, former Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, has an open letter in Time.

I was particularly taken by this line:

Could it be that the extremists all around see their interests — however transient, domestic and short-sighted — in heightened tension and crisis?

Extremists “all around” eh?

hmmm sounds like good-cop, bad-cop. sheesha-induced stream-of-consciousness letter from Ahmadinejad (mostly for domestic consumption) followed by a rational ‘western’ coherent and measured one from Rohani (for the west).

I really think Bush ought to reply in his fifth-grade grammar with no help from advisors, except Dan Quayle to help catch spelling errors. They could get 24 crayola pencils for just $5.49:

and draw figures showing big big explosions if the Iranians don’t stop enriching right away.
