[ New York Sun] Benny Avni - The West's current diplomatic strategy - offering endless incentives to Iran, hoping it will change its behavior - is little more than an exercise in self-delusion. Western diplomats reportedly are "disappointed" at Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki's response to the most recent incentive package that EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana offered to Iran. Reading Solana's package of benefits, Israel's former deputy defense minister, Ephraim Sneh, told me, "I thought it was being offered to Sweden or Norway," not a terrorist regime that has thumbed its nose at UN Security Council resolutions. "Iran will fool the West to buy time, and the West will allow itself to be fooled." 2008-07-08 01:00:00Full Article
