'A Wall of Mistrust' : November 09, 2007 ; Newsweek - Web Exclusive -Maziar Bahari

A former Iranian diplomat discusses nukes, the Holocaust and how Washington can win Tehran's trust. Sadegh Kharazi, Iran's former deputy foreign minister and ambassador to France, was one of many Iranian diplomats forced to resign by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad when he came to office in 2005. Considered too liberal for the new leader, Kharazi remains critical of Ahmadinejad—and blames Washington for creating the conditions that brought him to power. Kharazi, now an adviser to Iranian former president Mohammad Khatami, spoke to Newsweek's Maziar Bahari in Tehran about Iran's nuclear program, misconceptions about his country and the U.S. race for the White House. Excerpts:

So what is the way out for the mullah's?
There is a wall of mistrust between Iran and the United States. But until Americans designate a budget to change the government in Iran, we cannot have normal relations with the United States. Americans can take four steps to gain Iran's trust: 1) Recognize the Islamic Republic as the legitimate government of Iran and cancel all the programs for regime change. 2) Return frozen assets of Iran in the United States. 3) Stop its support for anti-Iranian terrorist organizations like the MKO cult based in Iraq, the Kurdish separatist group PJAK, and pro-Taliban Baluch separatists, Jondollah. 4) Annul previous sanctions against Iran and do not impose new sanctions.
In your Dreams you Bastard son of a Mullah !
