Europe: Trapped Between Washington and Tehran?

Stanley Weiss, Business Executives for National Security | June 9, 2008

Europe is playing a dangerous game with Iran. ++ Supporting US-endorsed sanctions while simultaneously maintaining business ties with Iran has resulted in a "schizophrenic policy." ++ While the US sees a nuclear Iran as absolutely unacceptable, many Europeans' worst nightmare instead is a US or Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. ++ "Europe's new leaders may speak loudly, but they still carry a small stick." ++ Bush must recognize that Europe is not willing to avert a nuclear Iran at all costs.
