Report: "US tells Iran to stop backing Iraq militias"
Ah, the sure-fire just get ‘em told method. Why didn’t anybody think of that before?
In a press conference after the four-hour meeting, US ambassador Ryan Crocker said that the Iranian and American delegations both expressed ”support for a secure, stable, democratic, federal Iraq, in control of its own security, at peace with its neighbours.”
How sweet!
… the American delegation stressed to the Iranians that they should stop supporting Iraqi militants.
We stressed it, did we? Well, if we stressed it …
Mr Crocker said support by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard for Iraqi militants “needed to cease,” and that the US “would be looking for results.”
Why do I get the impression that we can keep looking? Is it because few things in the world are more utterly useless than diplomatic babble?
