There's a very simple question anyone who wants to deny that obvious conclusion needs to have a very good answer for: why NOW and not one, or two, or six, or twelve months ago, or so many months later? Provide a reason for now, BUT NOT EARLIER OR LATER, which is more plausible than correlating timing of the impending nuclear talks.
