IS Update 2 - Middle East Crisis


Lets Get Real:

The politics of the Middle East is murky at the best of time, it has been reported that President Obama sent a letter to Tehran in the hope of getting an agreement on various issues, it has also been reported that there was no official reply.   It not the official reply that worries this blog, its the back channels between the US and Iran, talks with Iran after the revolution have never gone well, the latest talks on their nuclear plans shows a Regime that is stalling, wants endless talks with the prospect of getting the bomb while the West is diverted by IS and the hope of an agreement between the US and Iran.   The US should send a warning shot over the bow of Iran, they might be on the same side when it comes to IS up to a point, but the West still understands that Iran is a major threat to Western security.
