U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton talks to Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al Faisal at a a Gaza Strip donors conference. Clinton also met privately with the foreign minister of the United Arab Emirates and spoke about Iran
"Reporting from Sharm El Sheik, Egypt -- The Obama administration has already concluded that a diplomatic overture to Iran, one of the central promises of the president's election campaign, is unlikely to persuade Tehran to give up its nuclear ambitions.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told the foreign minister of the United Arab Emirates in a private meeting Monday that it is "very doubtful" a U.S. approach will persuade Iran to relent, said a senior State Department official, who spoke on condition of anonymity under customary diplomatic rules."

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (C) visits the Natanz uranium enrichment facilities 200 miles (322 km) south of the Tehran, Iran on April 8, 2008. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced that Iran started installation of some 6,000 new centrifuges on Tuesday.
"WASHINGTON, March 3 (UPI) -- U.S. President Barack Obama has sent President Dmitry Medvedev of Russia a letter suggesting that the proposed U.S. missile shield in Poland and the Czech Republic may not be necessary if Moscow can convince Iran to curtail its nuclear aspirations.
The Moscow newspaper Kommersant and The New York Times (NYSE:NYT) reported Obama's message Tuesday.
These latest developments will come as no surprise to those who have followed our coverage of the issue at UPI. For the past three months we have predicted that the Russian government would make such an offer -- either offering to negotiate a new strategic arms-reduction treaty with the United States or folding the offer in with another one of mediation with Iran -- and that the new Obama administration would take it."

WTF is going on with this administration? Two separate stories saying completely opposite things. Isn't Hillary supposed to take her lead from 0Bama?

Raise your hand if you remember a Democrat telling you that the Bush administration needed to use more diplomacy. Now it suddenly doesn't work.

Obama may trust
Whatever that was supposed to say got truncated and isn't apparent from the quotes. What I want to know, is did this sentence involve her waving a piece of paper in the air and saying something about "Peace" as she got off an airplane?

Sorry about that. I had tried to put both headlines of the separate articles in this thread title to show the contrast. UPI has since changed the second articles title. It originally said something about 0Bama trusts that US and Russia talks could curtail Iran's nuclear weapons plans. The exact opposite of what Hillary was saying.

I still remember Jimmy "the peanut farmer" Karter waving the agreement he struck with north Korea -- just like Neville Chamberlain did in the late 1930s.
The ink on Karter's agreement wasn't even dry yet when the north Koreans had violated that agreement.
But alas, since north Korea is a communist regime, they are going to be taken at their word by the American communists in the defeat-o-crat party.
Israel is about to be sold down the river by Klinton and "the messiah". If it is found that Iran has made their first nuke, we can expect "the messiah" and Klinton to ignore the matter. We can also expect the IAF to launch a no holds barred strike on Iran's nuclear sites. We can also expect, after that strike, that "the messiah" and Klinton will stab Israel in the back at the UN.
