Reuters: Powell says U.S. should talk to Iran, not attack

Former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell does not believe the United States will attack Iran and says Washington should speak to Tehran and Syria.

Powell, who said Iraq was in a civil war on Wednesday, was speaking to the Leaders in London Business Forum on Thursday.

Answering a question from Reuters, Powell said: “Iran is a regional power and it will have to be dealt with. We should find ways to speak to them and also speak to the Syrians.”

And where was Powell during the Reagan and Bush I administrations? Has Colin gone soft or does he wish to stick a finger in the eye of President Bush?

Probably the latter.

However, he is WRONG on Iran.

How can you negotiate with terrorist minded NUTTERS who wish to impose Iranian radical theocratic/Islamic/Sharia hegemony over the entire Middle East AND “WIPE ISRAEL OFF THE MAP?”

Colin collect your speaking fees and go on the tour with Bill Clinton and then RETIRE……….
