who would've thunk it . . . . the first friendly overtures come from iran.
the very same country that has to bear the internal political weight of being labeled a member of 'the axis of evil' by our grand poobah bush turned over 16 al-qaeda fighters to saudi arabia in their latest contribution to the american led war against terrorism.

seems as if the oft abused and highly undervalued reformers in iran still have enough air in their lungs to trump the revolutionary
council, assuming the later did not support the decision. iran has fought al-qaeda and the taliban far longer than america. when
the taliban were touring america as guests of a texas oil giant and meeting low-level u.s. government officials in 1997-8, iran was
on the brink of war with the taliban - facts overlooked by our unbiased media.
methinks the most enlightening point here is that rumsfeld's saudi arabia and iran may be experiencing a detente. ideologically, they're
traditional enemies. one's sunni and wahhabist, the other shiite. having saudi arabia act as an intermediary and possibly draw the
harder iranian elements into our orbit of influence may prove auspicious for future considerations and make donald rumsfeld love
saudi arabia even more. sweeeet !
