So Which is It?

Interesting conflicting perspectives in this USA Today piece reporting on events in Iraq:

Secretary of State John Kerry said Monday that the U.S. is willing to talk with Iran to stem the advance by extremists and would not rule out possible military cooperation with the longtime enemy.

But the Pentagon quickly underscored that Washington would not be consulting with Iran on any potential military intervention. "We are not planning to engage with Iran on military activities inside Iraq," said Rear Adm. John Kirby, the Pentagon spokesman.

My hope is that the military viewpoint prevails but, let's face it, who do you think Obama will side with?

Kerry or our military.

We live in scary times.
