Obama should test Iran’s nuclear offer

Iran’s nuclear

President Obama should take a page from Ronald Reagan’s playbook in attractive the final inning of the Cold War Obama can brave President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to put his enriched uranium where his mouth is by stop all Iranian enrichment of uranium beyond the 5 percent level.

A quarter-century ago, Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev was tout a new “glasnost” openness President Reagan went to Berlin and called on Gorbachev to “tear down this wall” Two years later, the Berlin Wall came plummeting down and, shortly thereafter, the Soviet “evil empire” fell as well.

While in New York for the opening of the U.N. General Assembly in September, Ahmadinejad on three occasion made an explicit offer He said Iran would stop all enrichment of uranium beyond the levels used in civilian power plants if his country is able to buy particular fuel enriched at 20 percent, for use in its research reactor that produce medical isotopes to treat cancer patients.
