Rove says Iran leader not rational
Wed Apr 12, 2006 3:23pm ET


By Erwin Seba

HOUSTON (Reuters) - Reaching a diplomatic solution over Iran's nuclear ambitions will be difficult because Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is "not a rational human being," a senior White House adviser said on Wednesday.

The United States is pressing for the U.N. Security Council to take further action against Iran for pursuing its nuclear program, which the Bush administration says is a cover for producing weapons while Tehran says is for peaceful energy generation.

"We are engaged in a diplomatic process with our European partners and the United Nations to keep them from developing such a weapon," Karl Rove, deputy White House chief of staff, told an audience of business people at the Houston Forum.


"It's going to be difficult. It's going to be tough because they are led by ideologues who have a weird sense of history," he said.

...said this about McCain, and Cleland too, when he thought it served his interests to do so.
