Iran's Letter To Bush: "As We Both Know, Somebody's Got To Be The Decider"...

Iran's Letter To Bush: "As We Both Know, Somebody's Got To Be The Decider"...

From the A.P., May 8, 2006: "Iran's leader has written to President Bush, in the first letter from an Iranian head of state to an American President in 27 years, a government spokesman said Monday. "In the letter, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad proposes 'new solutions for getting out of international problems.'"

Dear President Bush:

Long time, no talk. What has it been, 27 years? To some, an eternity. But for those of us who look back fondly on the golden age of the caliphate--632 to 1517, give or take a few decades--it is truly nothing. A glitch. A blip. A hiccup. A mere blink of an eye in the grand sweep of history.

Yes, I know. It's nobody's fault. We've both been busy. Too busy to write, or even call--what with raising families, waging war, and generally fighting off the infidels who would undermine our authority.
