Nearly 60% of Americans think The US Should hold Diplomatic Talks with Iran
Edited on Wed Apr-08-09 05:17 PM by MadBadger
Wow, the American public's general opinion on foreign policy really has shifted away from the uber-hawkishness of the Bush era. Check out this new CNN poll:

Do you think Obama administration officials should hold diplomatic talks with the leaders of Iran in the next few weeks, or should they wait to hold diplomatic talks with Iran until that country makes significant changes in its policies towards other countries?

Yes hold talks with Iran - 59%
No, wait to hold talks - 40%
The poll also finds that only 22% of Americans say Iran is an immediate threat, 60% say it's a long-term threat, and 17% say it's no threat at all.

What will John Bolton say?
