Whether or not you call it terrorism, we are negotiating with assholes.

Here is a new and exciting thought. Maybe the race for nuclear materials isn’t about the bomb. Doesn’t it seem more likely that developing nuclear weaponry is about winning concessions from stronger nations?

I can’t believe we are jumping in to bargain with Iran. It makes me so irritated. “Alright Iran, if you don’t annihilate the species, we’ll lift some random embargo, that we likely put on you for some silly human rights violations or something. No worries. “

This is like a kid with a stick who, for the minor fee of your lunch money will just chase you around yelling, “I’m gonna pick up that stick and get you” instead of hitting you with it.

Except our kid wants millions of dollars and wields one hell of a stick.

I don’t even feel like bringing up the issue that we are negotiating with a man who denies that the holocaust occurred and is convinced of a global Zionist conspiracy.
