Perplexed by the vitriol of US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's attacks on Iran, one lawmaker believes he has uncovered the secret of her enmity -- that she was spurned by an Iranian boyfriend at college.
"The reason that the US secretary of state attacks Iran is because she had her heart broken by a young man from Qazvin while they were students," a confident Shokrollah Attarzadeh was quoted by the ISNA agency as saying.
Somewhat mysteriously, he added: "This is the result of an investigation by a woman MP, who cannot be named."
Qazvin is an unremarkable city 150 kilometers (90 miles) from Tehran, hitherto not known for playing a major role Iran-US relations, which have been frozen for a quarter of a century.
Attarzadeh did not offer any other details on the alleged affair or, for that matter, any interesting new proposal on how ties between the two arch-enemies could be warmed up.
Surprising as it may be, amorous explanations for diplomatic machinations are nothing new here.
It was rumoured last year that German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer hardened his tone towards Iran after acquiring a girlfriend who supports the exiled opposition.
The alleged leniency of International Atomic Energy Agency director Mohammad ElBaradei towards Iran's nuclear programme has also been explained by ... him having an Iranian wife.
So in other words, in Muslim dominated countries, the powerful men are weak-willed? Just like the story of Ahab and Jezebel in the Bible....
And some criticize Klein's book about Hillary as being over the top. The left has no constraints, legal, ethical or moral. Yahoo is as bad as the NYT, whom I expect will give this story front page coverage.
What about the left-winger that said there was a torrid love affair between President Reagan and Prime Minister Thatcher?
No, it's from the democrats again.
LOL! Bump.
Yahoo actually posted this crap? (One reason why I won't subscribe to SBC broadband.)
It's hugh, I tell you.
Hmmm. According to one of her sorority sisters, while at the University of Denver, Dr. Rice (at the urging of her father) dated football players. I don't recall there being too many Iranian football players, ever, anywhere ... but hey, what do I know?
Didn't you think you were reading the National Intruder? It's a new low for Reuters.

Give me a break!
Well ... she's dating ...
OMG! She's been waiting 30 years to position herself as Sec. of State so she can get back at a boyfriend. Why she's diabolical! Sarcasm ON!
More proof of what we've always known: THESE PEOPLE ARE NUTBAGS!!!!
no... just look at the ticker-tape tag (next to the Yahoo News) - it reads "AFP" - Agence France Press.
Too bad the frogs will no longer have a France in around 20 years; the yuppie jokers who printed this won't have any grandchildren to brag to about how "back-in-the-day", they stuck it to the US...
Thought you'd like this one.
Proposal:
How 'bout Iran turning over the "former boyfriend" to U.S. authorities at the Iraq border for immediate transport and detention at Guantanamo where the spurned Secretary of State can exact her revenge with the help of the Marine interrogators.
Maybe than she'll be more inclined to call off the dogs and American/Iranian international relations will "warm up."
Sheesh, I shoulda' been a diplomat. 
Sorry, I just had to do this:
