This is the first paragraph of truth that I've read in the mainstream American Media in 4 years since the Iraq War began. This is so refreshing. Nicholas Burns, U.S. undersecretary of state for political affairs was speaking today to the Dubai-based Gulf Research Center, an influential think-tank. He was threatening Iran to back down and threatening Iran that the U.S. was sending two carrier groups to the Persian Gulf. The article is entitled "U.S. Warns Iran to Back Down". Somehow these words managed to make it into the article:"Some among the audience of Dubai-based diplomats and analysts complained that American wars in the Middle East were already threatening the region's stability and asked Burns to sort out Iraq and the Israel-Palestinian conflict before turning attention to Iran. "What we are not interested in is another war in the region," Mohammed al-Naqbi, who heads the Gulf Negotiations Center, told Burns. "Iraq is your problem, not the problem of the Arabs. You destroyed a country that had institutions. You handed that country to Iran. Now you are crying to Europe and the Arabs to help you out of this mess."
