Iran setting it up..but will the U.S turn it down?

Let's wait and see the U.S turn it down.

Why turn down a letter? I could see unreasonable demands in the letter being turned down but someone will at least read it.

It's probably my pessimism but when Ho Chi Minh wrote letters to Truman and Eisenhower asking for help and independence from the French who were literally treating them like dirt, the U.S turned it down..Same thing happened in Chile and a few other places when the U.S would later invade or back a coup and install a puppet govenrment.

If I were Bush I'd be pretty damn curious about what it says.

Machette 05-08-2006 10:23 AM

Well let's wait and see. I know the U.S is still urgring the security council to vote strong measures on Iran.

[quote:38cc0]Iran's president declared in a letter to President Bush that democracy had failed worldwide and lamented "an ever-increasing global hatred" of the U.S. government.

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice swiftly rejected the letter, saying it didn't resolve questions about Tehran's suspect nuclear program.

"This letter is not the place that one would find an opening to engage on the nuclear issue or anything of the sort," Rice told The Associated Press. "It isn't addressing the issues that we're dealing with in a concrete way."[/quote:38cc0]

What about the proposed "new solutions"

Edit*

Iranian media will release the 18 page letter tommorow.

I'm also reading different reports from different news outlets. One says it covers the nuclear issue and the bitter relationship with the west..while corporate news is saying it covers nothing but rhetoric.
