I've Been Thinking:

Two seemingly unrelated items caught my eye today as I trolled trolling through dispatches dealing with the Middle East.

Item # 1:
Ali Larijani, the former Iranian nuclear negotiator, was in Cairo Egypt.
Larijani is still the head of the Iranian National Security Council.
Larijani was in Egypt to jumpstart diplomatic relations between Egypt and Iran, relations that were severed thirty years ago.

Item # 2:
Iran and Russia signed a deal on a surface-to-ground missile system.
The missile, an S-300 missile, has a maximum range of only 50 miles, but it is very effective against airplanes.

On closer observation it becomes evident that there is a definite link between the two items and events.
It is all about Iran.

Iran is out there improving status, making connections, generating good will.
Iran is building bridges all over the world, especially where it counts, especially in the Muslim world.

Wake up America - you are being out maneuvered by your foe.
