CNN's Christiane Amanpour suggests U.S.-Iranian relations will top President-elect Barack Obama's agenda.

Part of a CNN article on this topic:

Iran: The sizzling file that cannot wait

Iran's unwavering nuclear ambitions are considered the toughest challenge for an Obama presidency. Iran today is a far more powerful country from that of 2000 when George W. Bush took office. Iran proudly flexes its nuclear muscle -- for peaceful purposes as it says -- and shows off alliances extending from Lebanon (Hezbollah) to the Palestinian territories (Hamas) to Syria and Iraq. Iran is seen as key to many of the U.S.'s woes in the region and without a resolution of sorts to the deadlock in the relationship between the two countries, more regional tensions are feared to be on the horizon. An entire region now watches if Obama will act on his campaign rhetoric of engaging Iran, starting dialogue and trying sanctions first before resorting to a military response.

It's ironic that u.S. media parrots Iran's " influence in the region "as part of handling " its enemies "when the U.S. is the country that illegally invaded Iraq and invaded Afghanistan and occupy BOTH and has killed hundreds of thousands by sanctions ,invasions and occupations

U.S. travels thousands of miles for war and Iran is not allowed to have influence in their region , their neighborhood , their relatives according to who and clancy blaming Ahmadinajad is ridiculous ,it started earlier
