Morning Honcos……

Obama’s open hand to Iran.

You, too, have a choice. The United States wants the Islamic Republic of Iran to take its rightful place in the community of nations. You have that right — but it comes with real responsibilities, and that place cannot be reached through terror or arms, but rather through peaceful actions that demonstrate the true greatness of the Iranian people and civilization. And the measure of that greatness is not the capacity to destroy, it is your demonstrated ability to build and create.

I guess open doesn’t believe a legitimate government rules with the consent of the governed.

The Mad Mullahs’ respond.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said President Barack Obama’s video message yesterday didn’t show that the U.S. has modified its “hostile” attitude toward his nation.

The U.S. has shown no sign of “genuine” change in its “hostile” policy the Islamic Republic, Khamenei, 69, said in a speech to mark the Iranian New Year, according to state-run Press TV.

Obama continues to run Foreign relations like community organizing. Someone’s gonna’ get hurt, and the someone will likely be wearing the uniform of the United States Military.
