profiMyth that 'no diplomacy' has been tried
U.S. government officials at the ambassador level or above met publicly no fewer than 28 times with their Iranian counterparts during the Bush administration, according to published accounts. So Mr. Obama's briefers either were Internet-challenged, lazy or just out-and-out dishonest.
Попросту говоря - врали.
The notion that the Bush administration "never talked to Iran" is the founding myth of Mr. Obama's foreign policy. Mr. Obama repeated it at every occasion during the campaign and has repeated it since. It is patently false.
Короче, все как в детской приговорке: "Я иду по ковру, он идет пока врет, они идут пока врут..."
Ну, и куда можно придти по такому ковру?
