Well, this is interesting:
There is no viable military option for dealing the Iranian nuclear threat, and efforts by the Israeli government and its supporters to link that threat to progress in peace with the Palestinians and Syria are "nonsense" and an obstacle to the Arab-Israeli and international cooperation essential to changing Iranian behavior.
That's the conclusion of Keith Weissman, the Iran expert formerly at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), speaking publicly for the first time the government dropped espionage charges against him and his colleague, Steve Rosen, earlier this month.
This confirms what I was always saying:
"President Bush's demand that Iran halt all nuclear enrichment before we would talk with the regime was an excuse not to talk at all," Weissman said.
Why not talk at all? Because the whole "nuclear weapons" thing was and is a pretext, that's why.
