The United States suggested Thursday it was open to a new arrangement with Iran for peacefully resolving disputes such as Tehrans recent ballistic missile tests, while Americas Sunni allies in the Persian Gulf said Iran must stop sending forces to Syria and weapons to Yemen if it wants to normalize ties with its neighbors.
Setting the stage for President Barack Obamas summit with regional leaders in Saudi Arabia later this month, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry met with the foreign ministers of the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council to advance a series of proposals aimed at easing Arabs concerns about last years Iran nuclear deal and the warming of ties between the U.S. and Iran. These include providing new counterterrorism, conventional military, missile defense and cybersecurity capabilities.
Kerry raised several other ideas, including a possible partnership between the GCC and NATO to help stabilize the conflict-ravaged Arabian Peninsula. He pledged $139 million in new U.S. humanitarian assistance for Yemen to be doled out over the coming year, but his most interesting suggestion concerned the Iranian ballistic missile activities the U.S. had denounced as violations of a United Nations ban.
A moment after declaring America was united with Persian Gulf countries against the Iranian missile tests, Kerry said the U.S. and its partners were telling Iran that they were prepared to work on a new arrangement to find a peaceful solution to these issues.

The. Most. Inept. Administration. In. History.
When the “deal” falls apart, just change the deal. Obonzo and Old Horseface are getting their asses kicked by the Iranians. LOL.
Caving again?
Appeasement is our de-facto foreign policy, Carter was not this bad. This administration is purposely encouraging those who would happily kill us. There will be the typical response from the republicans, nothing.
Sadly, your comment is spot on.
Only if the “new arrangement” means turning their missile test sites to glass parking lots.
It’s also important to realize that Soetoro and the rest of the Dementocrats are well aware that the Iranians want to kill us. That’s why they’re so happy.
TREASON is the reason!
Yup orbamaramadingdongsucker and kerryyoumightremembermefromvietnam have sent a message to Iran saying just tell us what you want pretty please.
