Barbara Slavin, senior diplomatic correspondent for USA Today, talks about the complicated relationship between the U.S. and Iran over the years and the Bush administration’s hardline approach towards that country in her book: Bitter Friends, Bosom Enemies: Iran, the U.S. and the Twisted Path to Confrontation. She discusses her book with Trita Parsi, co-founder and current president of the National Iranian American Council.
Mr. Parsi is the author of the recently published book, Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran, and the United States.
An interesting conversation. Hope you enjoy it:
