The purpose of this note is to share my views with the leaders and peoples of the United States and Iran in the hope that they might contribute to the formulation of a more adequate response to the proposal presented for ending the nuclear crisis with Iran, particularly at this critical historical juncture. The original version f this article was written in Persian and published in the Tehran-based Kargozaraan Daily, an official publication of the Kargozaraan Party. That version addressed the Iranian Government as its primary audience. This English version has been adopted to also address the Bush Administration but it still addresses the Iranian Government more directly.
