Iran's Foreign Minister Says Iran Is Considering Obama's Remarks


Well, isn't this just special! Iran's Foreign Minister said that the government of Iran is considering the remarks by President-elect Barack Obama this past week. Here's exactly what this guy had to say from the article at The Jerusalem Post:


Ministry spokesman Hasan Qashqavi said in his weekly news briefing that the government would be watching to see if Obama's remarks "lead to essential change" in US behavior towards Iran.
If there was real change, Iran would take the appropriate matching actions, he added in Monday's briefing.

Oh, here's the reference of what Obama had to say to ABC News this week:


Earlier this week Obama told ABC news channel that he wanted to improve relations with Iran, describing a "new approach" involving engagement.
So, let's read between the lines, shall we? This asshat says that Iran will be watching to see if Obama will institute "essential change"....what might that "essential change" be that the Iranians are seeking to observe? Perhaps any or all of these:

1. I suppose if Obama withdraws all U.S. troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan that would be seen as an essential change agreeable to the regime in Tehran.

2. If a President Obama decides to lift all of the U.N. sanctions against Iran because of their nuclear program develeopment - that would probably turn some of the mullahs' heads.

3. If Obama were to sever relations with the country of Israel, now wouldn't that put a smile on the Ayatollah and Ahmadinejad!

4. Unilateral nuclear disarmament by Obama of the the U.S. weaponry would certainly signal to the Iranians that the U.S. would be great friends to the regime.

So, wouldn't most of that make the Iranians happy? Isn't that why America elected Barack Hussein Obama....so we could become friendly with ALL of the world again?
