Don't Risk Another Nuclear Showdown: Support Direct Negotiations with Iran Now
Target: George W. Bush, PresidentSponsored by: Ploughshares Fund
Now is the time to find peaceful solutions to the the standoff over Iran's nuclear program. Opening lines of communication with Iran is the only way to facilitate a non-nuclear resolution - avoiding another nuclear crisis.
The "no negotiation" approach to Iran has not been successful. For nearly 26 years now, the U.S. has had no formal diplomatic dialogue with Iran, even though key governmental bodies in Iran are eager to talk.
Credible sources say preparations are underway for military action against Iran. "Everything is on the table," says the administration - everything, that is, except direct talks.
The war in Iraq taught us about the disastrous costs of reckless and unsustainable military action. We now must bear the consequences of refusing to talk directly to North Korea. But we still have time to change our course with Iran. By openly communicating with those in Iran who want to negotiate, we can avoid another Iraq.
Tell President Bush to take a diplomatic approach with Iranian leaders. Direct negotiations are needed now more than ever!
