Iran Sets Preconditions for Meeting with U.S.

Obama will meet with Iran with no preconditions, but Iran isn't even that short-sighted. In fact, Iran has laid down 2 rather substantive pre-conditions for meeting with the U.S.:

1) Stop supporting Israel
2) Pull out of the Middle East altogether

I'm sure Obama would love to meet these two conditions as soon as possible, but although he might not mind alienating Israel, even he might not want to lose two wars at the same time. I'm sure he'll think hard about it though.
