I just find it hard that any intelligent person can think we can even entertain the idea.

It would be like walking up to a person you don't know and you say, "Hello." He returns with, "Fuck you!" You return 10 minutes later and you say, "I am sorry. I think I may have done something wrong to offend you." To which this person responds with, "FUCK YOU and your mother too!" You again return 10 minutes later and you say, "I am not sure why you are so angry at me?" He then responds by invading your embassy, holding 52 hostages for 444 days.

Anybody feel me?

Sgt Tom Cunnally Of all the news hacks out there (On the left and right) and horrible reporting skills that most reporters have, 60 Minutes has always been responsible and unbiased. I hope that rings true.

I like to see you and Walt Capt Walter Miller spare. Walt and I almost never see eye to eye on anything, but I do enjoy the fact that he responds and will go toe to toe. I saw Ben Carson the other day at a rally and the thing that I took away from it that I will use the rest of my life is, "If two people agree on everything, one of them is not needed".

Sounds like Dr. Carson favors eugenics.

The Conscience of the King

"The Conscience of the King" is an episode of the science fiction television series Star Trek. It is episode number 13, production number 13, and aired on December 8, 1966. It was written by Barry Trivers and directed by Gerd Oswald.

The episode takes its title from the concluding lines of Act II of Hamlet: "The play's the thing/Wherein I'll catch the conscience of the king."[1]

In this episode, Captain Kirk crosses paths with an actor suspected of having been a mass-murdering dictator many years before."

Anyone can have relations with anyone. I am stuck in relations with my ex. Wouldn't advise it, but we are definitely in relations. It is very much a relationship like those with a country that prays for our death and is willing to ally with anyone to meet that goal. The LAST thing I would do is to arm her.

History has proven that we cannot because a relationship requires full trust. Anyone or any country that shouts on the streets death to America is not someone we need to have a relationship with; albeit, keeping your friends close and your enemies closer does produce a valid truth. We should not go blindly into this and be prepared to act quickly and decisively should they go the wrong direction. Winston Churchhill said, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." I see no value in a relationship with these hate mongers but we need to be right on their ass to make sure they are not attempting to undermine our great country or kill our people.

I believe that at the current time the answer is no. We are still missing several journalists that need to the point of any conversation with Iran

I read the article because what you were suggesting just didn't sound right.

Capt Walter Miller - And your point is what?? That Obama doesn't want relations with Iran?? He said the Iran Deal is a step in the direction to have relations with Iran... But if you know what Obama wants let us know...


WASHINGTON—
In his Nowruz message to the Iranian people, U.S. President Barack Obama called for an end to decades of mutual mistrust and fear. As the Iranians mark their new year, six world powers prepare to wrap up talks on Iran's nuclear program.

A deal would ensure Tehran's nuclear technology can only be used for peaceful purposes in exchange for the easing of economic sanctions against Iran.

President Obama believes Iran has a historic opportunity to join the international community. He urged Tehran to accept the deal which could lead to greater opportunities for Iranian people.

"More trade and ties with the world. More foreign investment and jobs, including for young Iranians," he said. "More cultural exchanges and chances for Iranian students to travel abroad. More partnerships in areas like science and technology and innovation. In other words, a nuclear deal now can help open the door to a brighter future for you - the Iranian people."

But Iran must first prove its nuclear program is not a threat, said U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein.

"We want to see Iran become a viable member of the community of nations. We want it to give up terror. We want it to put Hezbollah out of commission. There's no need for a Hamas or Quds force. We want it to be a respectable nation that can open up and improve its economy and its social life for its people. Now, you can't do that with all the conflict that's going on," she said.

Israel is fiercely opposed to a deal with Iran, citing its links with terrorist groups. Some U.S. lawmakers also criticize the current talks with Iran.

"I would think that ideally, any negotiations with Iran would be much more encompassing. And yes, the fact that they do support Hezbollah, the fact that they are so active in Iraq, the fact that they basically have hit teams all around the world, including the Quds force, the ones that actually carry out the bombing assassinations here in Washington D.C," said Representative Peter King, Republican from New Jersey.

But others question why Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejects any talks with Iran.

"I do not trust in war as the best way to protect our families and though he denied it, that's really the alternative that he is advancing. We need to seek a resolution eventually of all of our differences with Iran, that cannot be done in this agreement," said representative Lloyd Doggett, Democrat from Texas.

The Obama administration has acknowledged that it has many concerns regarding Iran, but they cannot all be resolved during the current talks.

"We try to keep the P5+1 talks on the nuclear issue with Iran very separate from all the other issues where we have concerns about Iranian influence whether it's support for Hezbollah, whether it's interference in Syria. We really need to address these issues separately," said Marie Harf, a State Department spokesperson.

The administration also has pointed out that the talks with Iran involve five other major world powers. On Wednesday they will try to break an impasse over sensitive nuclear research and lifting of sanctions before the end-of-March deadline for the talks.

Capt Walter Miller -From the time of the United States coming on to world stage about 1900, it was the policy of the US government to (not a line from a movie) not get involved in a land war in Asia. And if you notice, no large US force was engaged in Asia prior to 1950.

Bad Truman! Bad!

Walt

Capt Walter Miller

Notice also that Truman was a one term president. He couldn't get reelected on his own merits.

Walt




What about your BS that Harry Truman only served one term as President...or we were never engaged in Asia prior to 1950...?? You might want to turn off your Bullshit & stick to the facts ....Sir
