#1 âIf you feel that we are not respecting your engagements then we will adopt a different policy and the heavy consequences of this policy will burden those who have not respected their engagements,â Did that make any sense? Anyone?

If we translate "not respecting your engagement" as "cheating on your fiance", then this is a quite wise warning that if you cheat on your girlfriend she may then "adopt a different policy" where you will return to your apartment to find your cd collection missing and your computer soaking in the bathtub. In the best of scenarios.

But that's probably not what he meant.

#2 Darn, Aris, that must have sucked! I feel with you, man! :-)

I can supply plethora of similar experiences, based on lesser sins than cheating (which is not in my behavioral patterns at all). I am not sure why wymon have this windictive streak, cuz I don't.

#7 Simple summary - If the US comes in militarily, I, Khatami, will be trusted by no one, either the mullahs on the one hand, or the dissidents on the other. I might as well write my will now.The best I can hope for is that the current situation keeps muddling by, unlikely though that is. Therefore I will call for compromise of some kind, though in increasingly incoherent terms.
