BBC News: Reports that the US has demanded that the UN recall its invite to Iran to attend the Geneva talks on Syria, as Iran has not signed up to the points already agreed.
Lets Get Real:
The Oval is having a tough time stopping the US Congress passing tougher sanctions on Iran after its deal with Tehran, it does not have the political weight at home to allow Iran to attend, the Syrian opposition has made it clear it will not attend if Syria's close ally attends. The meeting is pointless anyway, as President Assad has made it clear in recent days that he is not going anywhere, thus this is what happens when the US has a weak President, the UN tries to run such meeting, under the assumption that the Oval will fold, it cant, if it does it will be accused for furthering a policy of appeasing Iran. The Syrian Civil War will go on, the Gulf States will back the rebels, while Syria is supported by Russia and Iran. More deaths and sadness for the people of Syria and the Middle East.
