The truth however is, that an elementary difference exists in the public feelings of the two nations quite as great as in the idioms of their respective dialects.

“Ultimately, only diplomacy can bring about a durable solution to the challenge posed by Iran's nuclear program.

But that's absurd, because - first of all - Islam demands no such thing; and secondly, the only country in the world in which women can't drive is Saudi Arabia.
