(Weekly Standard) Lee Smith - Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has said he is against nuclear weapons - he even wrote a fatwa against them. Some Americans and Israelis say they can find no evidence that the fatwa really exists. Obama sees the fatwa as a hopeful sign. It's confusing, because if there's really a fatwa, then it's not obvious why the U.S. president is making such a big deal out of negotiations over a nuclear program that Khamenei's fatwa supposedly says Iran can't have in the first place. If there's a fatwa, then that solves everything. If Khamenei is to be taken at his word that a nuclear bomb is un-Islamic, then there's no more need to negotiate about anything. 2013-10-04 00:00:00Full Article
