Well, I guess the only solution is for the Liberal Govt to re-open official diplomatic relations with Iran, since the lack of any formal relationship makes any sort of negotiation difficult.   Right?

I wonder if the mother knows that she's being used as a pawn by the CPC (who likely know that this is a situation with a very low probability of success even IF they hadn't cut all diplomatic ties with Iran).

Seriously CPC Partisans - who do you think you're fooling with your "outrage" over this?
