I've Been Thinking:

In diplomacy, it all depends on how you spin it.

Iran is claiming that all the pressure the United States has been piling on China to support sanctions against them, has actually brought China and Iran closer together.
I know it sounds so incongruous.
But this time, Iran may be telling it like it is.

Iran just announced an international conference that they will host later in April titled "Nuclear Energy for All, Nuclear Weapons for No One."
This will be a public relations bonanza for Iran.
The Iranians are directly confronting the United States assertion that the purpose of the Iranian nuke program is for weapons.

Creating a conference about energy and rejecting weapons is sheer brilliance. Iran will attempt to convince leaders and countries around the world that all they are interested in is their unalienable right to develop nuclear energy - not nuclear weapons.
The conference will whittle away at international support for actions against Iran.

The Iranians have come up with a simple plan, or should I say, counter plan that will have a far reaching, long lasting powerful impact.
