US Now Trusts Iran
By Micah Halpern

Wednesday November 30, 2005

I've Been Thinking:

Secretary of State Condi Rice confirmed that the United States supports a Russian proposal that would drastically change US policy toward Iranian nuclear development.

That shocks me.

This is the proposal: Iran continues to develop an atomic energy program, but from now on, the last stage of uranium enrichment take place in Russia.
The idea behind it all is that now the allies will know the extent of Iran's nuclear arsenal.
And there lies the mistake.

Who says that because Iran is doing one thing by the book they will not still secretly go ahead with their original plans away from the watchful and naive eyes of the Americans and Russians?
It would not be the first time the Iranians agreed to something and then went ahead and did whatever they pleased.
Why start trusting them now?

It is hard enough to keep Iran in check.
Do not provide them with the reward from the outset.
