...After Israel began its offensive in Gaza 12 days ago, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan visited Arab leaders in Syria, Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia to promote a cease-fire. He also spoke to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and this week Erdogan's Foreign Minister is promoting truce proposals at the United Nations, where Turkey is starting a two-year term as a member of the Security Council...
Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki was absent from the ceremony. On Monday he was scheduled to return from a two-day visit to the U.S.'s adversary, Iran, where he met with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Supreme Leader Ayatullah Khamenei.

Of course, there remains no political risk in scolding Iran—America has had little strategic interest or diplomatic ambition in the Islamic Republic since both countries parted ways after the 1979 revolution...
...Please identify all speeches you have given. If available, please provide the text or recordings of each such speech or identify any recordings of speeches of which you are aware. While this might immediately eliminate a few notorious public figures - like the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, say, or Mahmoud Ahmadinejad - it's harder to tell whether there might be any hidden evils lurking in the dusty VHS recording of your high school graduation speech, other than the bad haircut...
