Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Did anyone catch the weird happening at the Guardian today wrt Iran?  I woke up to a story there about Iran suspending uranium enrichment before talks with the USA this week, which both sides had denied.  Later, the Guardian changed the story to say that the Iranians denied this and that it was an error in translation, or some sort of problem to that effect.  Very odd.

Given the situation, where there is obviously some sort of negotiation going on behind the scenes, I imagine there's a lot of disinformation, bluff and counter-bluff going on, not just between the involved parties, but also to throw the media off the scent.

I'm reminded of the SALT II talks where the media liaison said, "those who know, won't talk. Those who talk, don't know"

I think you hit the nail on the head there.
