Shift in policy? Obama, Rouhani talk on phone
President Barack Obama spoke by telephone with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, the first direct conversation between leaders of the United States and Iran since 1979.
Obama believes a comprehensive agreement is possible regarding Iran's nuclear ambitions, telling reporters at the White House that "the test will be meaningful, transparent and verifiable action" and if proven would ease international sanctions in place against Iran.
Western leaders have expressed cautious optimism about Iran's more moderate tone under Rouhani. Among other things, recent comments by Rouhani have given some hope that a deal could be struck over the Middle Eastern nation's nuclear program.

I trust President Obama completely to conduct these communications to our benefit, and to Iran's. Congratulations to our President on his diplomatic successes!
Some individuals can be so naïve.
Yeah we know Jeff.
Whats fair for one must be fair for all i guess. In an ideal world no one would have nuclear weapons, unfortunately we don't live in an ideal world.
Yes @ Joey! Now if only Congress could behave so well huh? The bratpak is having another tantrum today! I think they are the most useless, unproductive in history! And shame on their behavior today! 2 stick out quite obvious Boehner and Cruz!
Ted "Joseph McCarthy" Cruz. He is so entertaining.

OOOOOOOrrrrrrrrrrr talks instead of boots on the ground?
President Barack Obama spoke by telephone with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, the first direct conversation between leaders of the United States and Iran since 1979? I'm a nobody from nowhere, and just got off the phone with my hair dresser, and had a more meaningful conversation.
You are right; we should completely dismiss the fact that it is the first time that leaders of the U.S. And Iran have had direct contact in 34 years as not meaningful at all.
Are u talking to me?
Did u get a flat top
Folks and my friends @chrissy@bobcat@dazzle pl read Uri Avnery's article "The Real Bomb- Israel & Rouhani" in Counter Punch today.
The West should breath a sigh of relief and seize the moment to push for a lasting peace with this diplomatic initiative. And woe to neo-cons, the Grahams, the McCains, the Kings and the War Party.
Who Ahmedinijad really was,Uri Avnery eloquently reveals in his article. Rouhani , his opposite provides the window for the US to go the way of sanity. Netanyahu step aside.
"Rouhani is not calling the shots" Mitt Romney.
You stupid man, should Israel be calling the shots to sabotage what has appeared as a silver lining for the world to steer way from a path of mutual destruction?
Romney was made irrelevant the last national cycle. His observations are just as irrelevant.
This is the time also to rid the M.East of all WMDS and such programs , no exceptions.
What a wonderful true statement.
Have a great weekend all.
