Obama advisor: U.S. not cooperating with Solana

TEHRAN, July 1 (MNA) - In an e-mail interview with the Mehr News Agency on Monday, Barack Obama's nuclear policy advisor, Joseph Cirincione, said the next U.S. president should "engage Iran in a full and open dialogue without preconditions."

Joseph Cirincione also said the U.S. is not "cooperating" with EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana in his dealings with Iran.

Cirincione had written after Israel's strike against the suspected Syrian nuclear plant that stories about it being a North-Korean designed and built plutonium reactor were a lie -- a fiction being spread just as reports had been spread before the Iraq War that misled the press regarding Iraq's program. Schoenfeld writes:

Who was behind this nefarious manipulation? It appears, wrote Circincione, "to be the work of a small group of officials leaking cherry-picked, unvetted 'intelligence' to key reporters in order to promote a preexisting political agenda." What exactly was that political agenda? "[I]t appears aimed at derailing the U.S.-North Korean agreement that administration hardliners think is appeasement." There was also a dose of Zionist mischief thrown in: "Some Israelis want to thwart any dialogue between the U.S. and Syria."
