U.S. to Enter Talks with Iran and Syria on Iraq

U.S. FOREIGN POLICY MAY MOVE FROM BULL IN A CHINA SHOP TO BULL MARKET.


Bummer about the stock market yesterday; hooray for today's rebound. But did anyone notice a major shift in U.S. foreign policy amidst all the financial hand-wringing?

Even if the talks ultimately accomplish nothing for the U.S. situation in Iraq, or for the Iraqis themselves, they are still a badly needed sign to the world that U.S. foreign policy need not be unreasonable in the Middle East.

If nations were stocks in a public-diplomacy market, the American issue would have ended the last two days hundreds of points higher.
