We get nothing by not talking

ARTICLE: U.S. Accepts Offer From Tehran for Broad Talks, By Glenn Kessler, Washington Post, September 12, 2009

Smart move by Obama administration to take up the broader talks offer from Tehran. We don't learn anything or move the ball whatsoever by not talking.

I think Obama's dilemma is not whether to talk or not, but whom to talk to in Iran's byzantine and interwoven clerical, political and business establishments. Conversely, the fact the Iranians are sometimes channeling their rhetoric more towards Britain than the US may be a sign of receptivity.

Biggest problem so far . . Only one sides talking . . This is true in the cases of both Iran and NK . .

And, in the case of NK, when they do talk, they consistently lie . . They game the system in their favor every time and Three Administrations have learned NOTHING . . Will the Obama Administration be any different?
