Guest guest Posted June 20, 2006 Report Share Posted June 20, 2006 Bush Ignored Iran Peace Offer in 2003 The Washington Post is reporting the Bush administration ignored an offer from Iran in 2003 to cooperate on a number of key issues now at the center of the dispute between the two nations. According to the report, Iran offered to fully cooperate on its nuclear program, recognize the state of Israel and terminate support for Palestinian militant groups. Iran sent the offer just weeks after the U.S. invaded Iraq. The Bush administration belittled the offer and formally complained to the Swiss ambassador for sending the proposal along. Bush Warns Iran Could Face Tough Sanctions Meanwhile on Monday – President Bush warned Iran again that it will face tough sanctions if it rejects a new offer from the U.S. and European nations to rejoin nuclear talks.
