The pointlessness of patty-cake - today's edition

Kind of renders null the whole point of gathering in Geneva to jaw-jaw, doesn't it?

Top Iranian Brigadier General Massaoud Jazzayeri stresses on Sunday that no foreign national would ever be allowed to inspect Iranian military sites.
Fars News reported:

Deputy Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces Brigadier General Massoud Jazzayeri underlined that no foreign national would ever be allowed to visit or inspect Iran’s military sites.

“We reiterate that the permission will definitely never be issued for any kind of access to the military centers, even if it runs counter to the acceptance of the additional protocol (to the NPT),” General Jazzayeri said on Sunday.

He noted that the Iranian Armed Forces and the country’s Air Defense System are tasked with safeguarding the country’s interests and security, and said, “Foreigners’ visit to defense and military centers as well as obtaining information about the related equipment and tactics is against the orders (of commander-in-chief Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei) and also the demands of the entire Iranian nation.”

General Jazzayeri underlined the need for vigilance in defending the Iranian nations’ rights in different fields, and said, “No protocol should disturb our country’s national security.”

Think of all the carbon-producing jet fuel and all the tax dollars spent on this charade.
