Wisdom (?) From Iran: Boycott Peace Conference

Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the man President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad must answer to, has told Muslims to boycott an American-sponsored peace conference this November.

Iran has shown a sincere interest in solving the Jewish problem in the Middle East before. Among other Iran's efforts are support of

• Hezbollah (Shiite, southern Lebanon
• Hamas (Sunni, Palestine/Gaza)
• Islamic Jihad ((I haven't learned which flavor of Islam), Palestine/Lebanon)

The Supreme Leader of Iran says the peace conference, scheduled to start November 26, at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, is no good because it will hurt the Palestinians.

Since the conference is unlikely to swear death to Israel, death to the Great Satan America, I suppose the Ayatollah Khamenei's attitude is understandable. I could be wrong, but considering Iran's track record and the position of Khamenei's subordinant Ahmadinejad on the destruction of Israel, I don't think so.
