Part of the left's never ending drone is that rather than fighting wars to defend our civilization we need merely to "sit down and talk to <insert enemy>, find where we can agree and work out our differences." This is an article of faith for the left, that through negotiation one can reach agreement with one's enemies. That there is never a necessity for armed conflict, even when you are yourself attacked. In the left's claimed reality no enemies are implacable.
So I propose a test: I challenge the American left sit down with the American right, find their points of agreement and work out their differences. Until they have at least tried that I'm not willing to believe that it is possible to do so with another culture, especially a hostile one like the Mullahocracy of Iran.
That they have never even suggested such a thing is, I maintain, very revealing.
