This analysis by Arnaud de Borchgrave, a man who has forgotten more about foreign policy than we will ever know, points to the significance of Iranian Foreign Minister Kharrazi’s visit to Iraq last week.

According to the article,

Kharazzi, sans helmet and body armor, clearly outshined Condoleeza Rice, with helmet and body armor. He also had more meetings with Iraqi topsiders than Rice.

It is important for Iraq to work with Iran if they can. Right now Iran is fueling the insergency. This has to stop, one way or another.

The jury is out if anything will come of this.
 
A nitpick–the author of the article has a poor grasp of English to write “outshined” instead of “outshone”.

Secondly, no one would claim that any American would have as great an effect on the leaders of Iraq than a brother Arab/Muslim. That wasn’t Condie Rice’s mission. Let’s appreciate each one for what they are capable of accomplishing instead of comparing apples with oranges. We might understand the situation better and be less frustrated that way. Yes?
 
Omar is not impressed:

**Who are you trying to fool Kharrazi?
**BAGHDAD – Iran’s foreign minister made a historic trip to Baghdad yesterday, pledging to secure his country’s borders to stop militants from entering Iraq and saying the ''situation would have been much worse" if Tehran were actually supporting the insurgency as the United States has claimed.

Now, he’s trying to say that Iran was NOT supporting the insurgency, hmmm, then what about that meeting between Asad and Khatemi last year in Tehran when they both vowed to support the Iraqi “resistance”?
And what about the recruitment centers where idiots signup under the Mullahs’ noses (and with their blessings) to fight and become “martyrs” in Iraq? Not to mention Iran’s involvement in providing Muqtada with money and weapons and training his gangs in Iranian camps.

Kharrazi went on with his lies as far as saying:

“We believe securing the borders between the two countries means security to the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Kharrazi said.

Now come on Kharrazi! We both know that the change in Iraq is threatening the existence of the Mullahs’ regime and Iraq’s stability will only accelerate the collapse of their control over Iran. So how do you expect Iraqis to buy such lies?

I have no doubt that people here will not put much (if any) trust in Iran’s “promises” and I hope the governemnt here will be just as smart.

One of the reasons why Iraq is talking to Iran:

Iraqi minister of transport told Al-Sabah that his ministry feels optimistic about getting the Iraqi Airways aircrafts back, in reference to the aircrafts that had been held by some countries since the gulf war in 1991.

The minister explained that Iran has promised to release the aircrafts soon while there are some positive signs of a similar resolution coming from the Kuwaiti authorities.

This-when happens-will allow the Iraqi Airways to expand its business and reactivate many of the commercial flight-lines that have been suspended for about 15 years.

However there are no news about other Aircrafts that are still held by the authorities in Jordan and Tunesia, nor about some 100 military aircrafts that were sent By Saddam to Iran in 1991.

I happen to know Arnaud – he spent the night before Operation Huntsville in '66 at 48th ARVN HQ. He got so sloshed he missed the operation, and later wote a report based on what the troops told him – and they didn’t miss a chance to feed him all the BS he could handle.

Many, many of the press covering Iraq are doing so from bars inside their hotels. They say it is because it is too dangerous to venture forth, except to press briefings.

Yes, they recirculate stories among themselves. As soon as three people have told each other the same story, it’s true.http://forums.catholic-questions.org/images/icons/icon12.gif
