FOR all the AJN readers out there who are following our paper’s coverage of the Iranian nuclear negotiations situation very intently, I’d like to give you an extra-credit assignment.

I urge you to read American political commentator Charles Krauthammer’s eye-opening column “Obama’s French Lesson”.

To find it online, simply Google “Charles Krauthammer” and the top link that should appear should be his column archive at the Washington Post, which syndicates his work.

Whether you agree or not with his criticisms and conclusions, this particular column’s observations and insights into recent news items regarding Iran go far beyond the headlines and give considerable food for thought.

For those of us who believe that you can never dig too deeply into the subject, it’s a must-read.
