No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

I’m confused

I know that isn’t a real surprise but this time I’m really confused…..

What’s the criteria Barack Obama would like to use to determine who we negotiate with?

In a statement today regarding Carter’s trip to visit Hamas, Barack was quoted as saying:

“We must not negotiate with a terrorist group intent on Israel’s destruction,”

However, just recently as a part of his questioning of General Patraeus, Barack reiterated his desire to negotiate with Iran:

“We should be talking to them (Iran)  as well,” Obama told the top US General in Iraq David Petraeus and US ambassador to Baghdad Ryan Crocker.

I may have missed a recent news flash but isn’t Iran a country that is intent on Israel’s destruction?

Israel “is an illegitimate regime, there is no legal basis for its existence,”  Ahmadinejad said.

I guess the criteria for Barack comes down to who the audience is at the moment. OK, I get it now.
