Iran-US direct talks… how US generals think of it?
March 10th, 2008Today Pentagon Channel broadcast a briefing in Iraq in which two US generals were answering media correspondents. One of the Arab reporters asked US generals of the next round of security talks with Iran on Iraq issues, and the general responded: “that is not a dialogue between US and Iran; rather it is a direct talk between Iraqis and their Iranian counterparts and we participate in it trying to elaborate for Iranians how they could help Iraqis in security issues.”

They first think of it, then they resign
That’s how they think of it 
Numerous attempts have been made to conduct security talks between the feuding nations of Iraq and Iran. However, up to this point, no success has been made between the two sides. In February, Iran postponed security talks with Iraq for the fourth time. The Huffington Post reports that attempts to negotiate are strictly Iraqi efforts. Iranians show little to no interest in participation in negotiations: “this is the fourth time that we agreed on a date and they don’t show up.” This only goes to show the stubborn mentality along with the constant tension plaguing the Middle Eastern region.
