Listing MEK as a terror organization as a sop to soothe Iranian concerns. Frankly de-listing the group, which scares the Iranians like Vlad the Impaler scared the Turks - this is a step in the right direction. After all, wasn't the PLO on a list that no American was allowed to deal with? So, to correct a mistake from the past is the least that can be done.
