4:36 A recent email from Tom Huf struck me as a clear and succinct statement about the problem with American policy toward Iran. Tom, like my wife and myself, was a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer in Iran, and follows developments in Iran closely. Here’s what he wrote: I’ve been thinking recently that the whole US premise – even among non-Trumpians – of trying to isolate and punish Iran and dump onto Iran the ills of the region[,] is the best way to make the situation worse. Have we not learned the lessons of the Treaty of Versailles? Isolation, blame mongering, and punitive financial payment regimes did not work out so well after punishing Germany in 1919. Pretending that containing and even diminishing Iran will yield good results is absurd. Unreality, unbalanced dealing, and ignoring 80 million people injects instability and can only end badly.
