Real News Video: Cheney blocked talks with Iran

Colin Powell's former Chief of Staff Larry Wilkerson on how Cheney turned down talks with Iran


"Wilkerson says what Dr. Rice has been saying is fairly consistent with what the administration‘s position has been and that is, that Iran must stop enrichment before talks can happen. I think that’s absurd. Setting such conditions is a route to no talks at all, which is why Cheney advocates such a policy. Iran made a serious approach in 2003 to talk, Cheney made the State department turn it down. The plan was for regime change throughout the Middle East."
