Comments

Barack doesn't have any credible foreign policy other than withdrawal. He is only throwing red meat to the Democratic base right now in that regard. Engaging in a dialogue with extremist countries is a fool's errand and wishful thinking.

It was exactly dialog with an extremist country that ended the Cuban missile crisis without the detonation of a single warhead.
