VALERIE JARRETT, CHICAGO, AND THE IRAN DEAL

26 Nov 2013

Last week, the Times of Israel reported that senior presidential adviser Valerie Jarrett had been leading talks with Iran in secret for a year before the formal negotiations in Geneva this month. While the White House denied the report “100 percent,” the existence of back-channel talks has been confirmed by other reporting. The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday that President Barack Obama had “personally overseen” the talks.

Well there’s two alternatives for the US if they are determined to be involved in the Middle East, they can work with the Shiite Iranians or their arch-rivals the Sunni Saudis.

The Iranians haven’t actually attacked the US in about thirty years, Iran, despite being an Islamic Republic tolerates other religions, there are many Christians and indeed Jews living peacefully in Iran. Last year the Iranians elected a president with the specific mandate of ending Iran’s isolation and reaching out to the US. The Iranians are supporting the democratically elected government of Iraq, the democratic government that the US spent billions and thousands of lives getting installed. Iranians are much more open to the west and used to be America’s best friend in the region.

Or the US could continue to what it has being doing for decades; using its military as the House of Saud’s foreign legion, protecting the oil fields the feeble Saudi military could not defend, while the Saudis, who loathe America and the west, fund the Sunni and Wahabi extremists who are currently fighting in Syria and Iraq.

Oh and the men who attacked America on 9/11 were not Iranians but almost to a man Sunni Saudis led by a Sunni Saudi.

Yeah, I can see why the US wouldn’t want to side with Iran in this fight, er, maybe.
