#1 I understand Iran expects these seemingly endless talks to result in Iran doing just what they've been intending to do all along. What I don't understand is what the "Rest of the World" expects from these talks?

#3 "Iran is open to dialogue"

The problem is that dialog is the only thing Iran is open to and dialog for the sake of dialog solves nothing. What they have rightly understood is that we (the West in general) tend to value words more than actions. Witness Russia driving ever deeper into Georgia while saying they are withdrawing.

We have become a culture of idiocy and hold people responsible for their words, but not for their actions.

#4 For example, you can get probation for killing a human being if it is your first offense but you will get jail for taunting a racial minority or homosexual.
