#3 My SWAG is the Iranians are just messing with us. It weakens the support for sanctions. If the Americans have cut a secret deal, why should anyone else take an economic hit by not dealing with the Persians?

#4 In spite of the 34,5oo,ooo Google hits resulting form Obama October Surprise Iran, if an administration with the impeccable integrity of the Champ's has denied such letter, I am quite certain it did not happen.

There will be a video presentation entitled "The Third Jihad" this afternoon at 13hrs45 in Rantburg's Pruitt Hall for any who would like to attend.

#6 Could this be Trump's "Big" surprise he's letting out this week?

#8 #4 "In spite of the 34,5oo,ooo Google hits resulting form Obama October Surprise Iran,"

When you are using the number of google hits as a fact to prove a point, please remember to put quotation marks around the phrase you are googling. Otherwise the count is for all permutations of the words in the search term. The correct count for "Obama October Surprise Iran" is 955 as of this morning.

#9 I don't doubt that O might do this, but I do doubt that it will mean anything. It's just more rope-a-dope from the mullahs because they aren't quite done yet. They'll drag out the talks until they have a bomb (or bombs) and then use them. The only line to take with them is the hard one.

#13 A clever little bit of Psychological warfare: 0bama is flaky enough to give this claim a "credible at first glance" feel to it.

#14 I first read of the secret message on The Blaze 9-3-12--conveyed during Ban's visit to Tehran. Champ was afraid Israel would take out their nuke facilities and sent a message official WH policy did not support them and didn't want retaliation against our resources in the region. Claudia Rosett further supports this in her article in PJM: http://pjmedia.com/claudiarosett/un-brings-u-s-a-new-low-in-iran-diplomacy/
Excerpt:
Ban, while touring the Tehran regime, has brought in tow a former U.S. assistant secretary of state, Jeffrey Feltman, who just last month moved to the UN to serve as under-secretary-general for political affairs...
The photo gives a wider view of Ban’s meeting with Khamenei, in which Khamenei sat authoritatively in a chair, and Ban sat humbly on a couch — and there, sharing the couch right next to Ban, is the American, Jeffrey Feltman.

Feltman looks ill at ease, eyeing the photographer while Ban’s attentions are all on Khamenei. There are plenty of reasons for Feltman to look uneasy. This is a diplomatic coup for Iran’s regime, which tops the U.S. list of terrorist-sponsoring states, thumbs its nose at UN and U.S. sanctions, and continues to pursue nuclear weapons, coupled with threats to America and America’s allies — including the genocidal threat to annihilate Israel. Nonetheless, not only has the UN secretary-general gone to Iran to round out the guest list of Iran’s pals in “non-alignment.” He has also brought with him, under the UN banner, a former high-ranking U.S. diplomat, to help pay court to Khamenei.

Did Feltman have a choice? After all, he left his career with the U.S. government, and on July 2 joined the UN, where he now works for Ban.
