Why Is the Press Taking the Iranian President's Letter as Serious Diplomacy?
The referenced article argues that we should respond to it anyway. I may respond to some of its theological underpinnings. What the heck?
What I gather is:
-the Iranian President repeats anti-Bush arguments from the American political left
-Israel shouldn't exist
-We should become Muslims. Laura Mansfield thinks it is a preliminary step for attacking us according to Islamic rules.
