Iran Playing Team Obama For Naive Fools

Nuclear Talks: Instead of a bad deal now, as many expected, the U.S. will spend three more months being talked into one that could be even worse — or, in June, yet another extension of this deadly farce.
Another deadline, another extension. Five centuries before Christ, China's Sun Tzu in "The Art of War" advised that "the supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting."
Knowing that "all warfare is based on deception," the great general also told those seeking to wage war successfully to "let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night."
Islamofascist Iran is following all this advice. Its "peaceful" discussions in Switzerland with the U.S., Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia are actually a war, and the negotiating room a battlefield.
As in physical war, valuable psychological weapons include the tactics of surprise attack, confusing and misleading the enemy, wearing him down and demoralizing him with disappointment when he expected the satisfaction of a gain.
Last week, diplomats were leaking to the press that a skeletal "framework agreement" by the March 31 deadline, with a final package within three months, was imminent.
But Tehran, as every realistic observer with a sense of history expected, pulled a number of eleventh-hour bait-and-switch maneuvers. No, we won't agree to a gradual cessation of sanctions; they must be removed instantly. No, we won't give away our stockpile of enriched uranium to Russia after all. No, 10 years is too long to refrain from pursuing our nuclear capabilities.
