Iran says Obama should not expect talks
2012-11-08
Head of Iranian judiciary Larijani condemns "unprecedented" US sanctions; indicates newly re-elected President Barack Obama should not expect Iran to come to negotiating table, says relations "not possible overnight."

Iran reacted coolly to Barack Obama's re-election on Wednesday, as the head of its judiciary condemned the "crimes" of US sanctions and indicated the president should not expect rapid new negotiations with Tehran.

"After all this pressure and crimes against the people of Iran, relations with America cannot be possible overnight and Americans should not think they can hold our nation to ransom by coming to the negotiating table," Sadeq Larijani was quoted as saying by IRNA news agency.

#2  An invitation for President Obama to bribe them to come to the table, to be followed by another bribe to stay at the table... In the meantime work on the nuclear bombs proceeds apace.

(Why yes, I am feeling a tad cynical today -- does it show?)
