Obama

Dear Senator Obama,

We the undersigned may have different views on U.S. foreign policy with respect to Iran. We all, however, are deeply concerned about the stories in the press in the past few weeks suggesting that the Bush administration might be considering a military strike on Iran, that it might give a green light to such an attack by Israel, or that it might engage in other acts of war, such as imposing a blockade against Iran.

U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama is in Afghanistan, at the start of an international tour designed to boost his foreign policy credentials.

A spokesman said Senator Obama arrived Saturday in Kabul, where he is expected to meet with Afghan President Hamid Karzai.

Obama is traveling along with two other U.S. senators, Republican Chuck Hagel of Nebraska and Democrat Jack Reed of Rhode Island. The congressional delegation will also visit Iraq.
