POLICY FOR NEGOTIATION WITH TERRORISTS
|

Right radical Bush was not the solution. Far left solutions do not seem to me a solution either. Do you think we should negotiate with a terrorist state that is killing our soldiers or eliminating a race? I think some ground rules have to be set before doing that, don't you?
Also, Recognised governments like Iran cannot be categorised as terrorists.
Dialogue with these Islamic countries like Iran, Saudi Arabia, etc and convincing them on the efficacy of Middle East peace is the first step towards the resolution of the crises. The Terrorists will never listen to America or Isreal but they will listen to Iran and Saudi Arabia. It will be their job to either convince the terrorists or better still make the middle east inhabitable for them. If Iran is on our side and join in the fight against terror instead of sponsoring it, we will be closer to victory. All these Islamic regimns are looking for, is a sense of recognition of their importance; and a demonstration of unbias towards Isreal. It will be a milestone if Isreal can be reconciled to countries like Iran! Nothing is impossible.
The alternative; adopted by the Bush administration is not working. Talking tough and doing nothing while Iran is daring us! If we want confrontation, the sensible thing to do is, according to John McCain, Bomb Iran Imediately. Because they are growing stronger everyday. But on the other hand, do we really want all these wars? Attacking Iran will surely double the price of gas which is already out of hand. Not to mention the human sacrifice that will follow.
So for me, Dialogue is the best solution.
