Iran sez Bush showing "signs of sense"
2002-02-24
  • Iran's former president Hashemi Rafsanjani said the Bush administration was showing "signs of sense" by saying it wanted to resolve differences with Iran peacefully. But Rafsanjani said that Bush's trip to Asia this month and CIA director George Tenet's meetings in the Middle East "brought some sense to their minds. They suggested negotiations with North Korea and they also said that they did not want a war with Iran. God willing, this is the case."

    In Asia, Bush said: "We want to resolve all issues peacefully, whether it be Iraq, Iran or North Korea, for that matter."
    One sign of sense on the Iranians' part would be to dump Rafsanjani and his controlling ayatollahs. The US is showing sense by not jumping on them with both feet militarily - but that's because they see the prospect of the Iranians cleaning their own house.
