Claudia,

It’s not the number of communications that is the problem, on that you are quite right. It’s the message inherent in the communications. After six years of the Euro 5, ‘negotiating’ with Iran over the nuclear program the Iranians essentially thanked them for all the extra time that their oh so sophisticated diplomats bought for Iran……….no charge!!

As each pressure point is reached the Iranians signal that; possibly, maybe, they might be willing to ‘talk’. In each and every case nothing changed othere than more time to pursue nuclear ambitions.

The communication gambit has reached the point where the communication should acutually have a point. STOP or we will STOP YOU!

That message is not going to come from the Obama Administration, it’s not going to come from Europe, nor Russia or China. We can only hope that between the growing internal resistance and Israel we can hold them off long enough to actually do something about them.
