June 09, 2006Middle East > Bush Offers Nuke Plant to IranThe Bull Moose on Bush offering a nuclear power plant to Iran if they shut down their uranium enrichment program: Well, there you have it. After years of conservative claims that the Clinton Administration sold out to the North Koreans with the deal that gave them a nuclear reactor, the Bushies have largely replicated that bargain for the Iranians. Peace in our time! I'm pretty sure the Bullmoose is correct - conservatives would call this appeasement if a Democrat did it. What's more, the mini-UN or whatever it was called tried this tactic months ago and Iran rejected their proposal. I can't imagine what BushCo is thinking. Posted by lesjones | TrackBackComments
I've tried to understand what tack it is that the administration is taking with Iran. Surely, I thought, there must be some kind of complex strategy at work here. Perhaps there is some kind of diplomatic this-n-that which we have to go through before we?... Before we what?... But maybe it isn't complicated. Maybe we're just screwing around waiting on Iran to get a nuclear weapon. Posted by: Christopher Range at June 09, 2006Post a comment
