ARTICLE: U.S. Envoy to Meet Iran Counterpart at Strategic Talks on Afghanistan, By JAY SOLOMON and ALAN CULLISON, Wall Street Journal, MARCH 19, 2009

Great sign and good idea by Obama team, whose only foreign policy clunker so far is the immensely stupid move on Mexican trucking--a cowardly pander to the Teamsters.

But this is very smart and right on the mark.

SCO mention, however, is completely wrong. Began in mid 1990s and NOT as result of U.S. Intervention in Afghanistan. A real bad fact-checking error, in my mind.
