No Proof Iran Used Enriched Uranium for Non-Peaceful Purposes: IAEA Director
2004-05-15
Of course, what we were looking for is proof that they aren't...
Mohamed ElBaradei, the director-general of the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency, said on Friday Tehran "had the know how" to enrich uranium but he had no proof that it had been processed to a military level.
The witnesses are dead?
"We will close the file when we have dealt with all the issues that require to be investigated," said ElBaradei, whose board of governors will meet in June on Iran's nuclear activities. "It will come to an end when it comes to an end -- when I am satisfied based on the technical advice I get that 'yes' now we can bring that issue to a close and 'yes' we can say that Iran's program is dedicated exclusively for peaceful purposes ," ElBaradei told diplomats and business leaders at the Council on Foreign Relations think tank in New York. Iran's ambassador to the United Nations in Vienna, Pirooz Hosseini, said on Thursday that his government was ready to present a complete account of its nuclear activities and plans to the agency by mid-May. Tehran says it is only interested in generating electricity and wants the agency to take Iran off its agenda after the June meeting.

None of the informative comments made here were based on "info" gleaned from movies, but because we know the score in Iran.

#4  Paul,
the expanding situation with Iran, which supports terrorists in Lebanon & various pro-Shi'ite gangs which attack Israel should not surprise anyone in Washington, since as far back as 1979, when the Carter Administration pull the rug from under the Shah and Khomeini and his followers sized Americans as hostages. Khomeini stated then that Iran would Muslim nation which would trigger a form of global jihad, one nation at a time.

Nothing has been altered from ayatollah dangerous view of a future international Muslim caliphate.

The only question remaining is when will the West wake up and respond as a unified counter force to the goals of the jihadists.

How can any unity be achieved to stop the threat of the forced globalization of Islam, with the likes of appeasing nations such as France, Russia, Germany, and as of late, Spain (under former Islamic control until 1492)?

I am firmly convinced the only real option Washington, London and the rest of the members of the Coalition has, regarding the threat of terrorist exporting Iran is to blockade all Iranian petroleum products attempting to exit the Persian Gulf for the Arabian Sea, by force if necessary, which in Iran's case is a sure bet.

In conjunction with an economic embargo, the continuation of supplying pro-western-anti-mullah forces operating along the Iranian border, coupled with like minded domestic organizations, with the means to overthrow the current Iranian dictatorship, the sooner the better.

In case neither one of those options list above are not fully successful, global security mandates elevated military action be taken over the issue of Iran, therefore cutting off monetary support & weapons shipments the renagade mullahs have been supplying to Syria, Lebanon's Shi'ite terror group, Hizballah, along with pro-Iranian terrorist groups attacking Coaltion forces throughout Iraq, and those attacking Israel.

People need to finally understand radical Islam's set goals are the re-conquest all lost 'Muslim lands' such as Spain & Portugal to name just two. If non-Muslims to do willing submit to Islam the same revolting, brutal horror which was inflicted upon Nick Berg awaits all of us in the enemy's demented sick mindset.

Soon, after some other horrible slaughter of innocents by the savage forces of jihad, the world shall realize we united & we should have acted against this growing threat to international economic stability and global security .....a long time ago.

#3  The confrontation is coming. They have been concentrating U235 for quite a while now, so they should have adequate fissle material for some bombs. The clock is ticking. The question is when they will start nuclear blackmail, or will they set proxies to do their dirty work. This is downright dangerous, and bloody frightening. Mad Mullahs on the loose.

#2  Sure, and it snows during the month of July in Chad as well.

Iran is the main exporter of Shi'ite linked terror around the world. Iran's mullahs in conjunction with North Korea are very busy attempting to secure nuclear weaponry if they have not already!

Iran's pays for North Korean nuclear 'advice' through the billions of dollars (euros) that rouge Islamic terror state earns off the continued sale of her exported OPEC crude oil.

Cut off Iran's oil exports though an enforced Persian Gulf embargo of all supertankers with Iranian crude, and the result will be a reduction in Islamic terrorism on a world-wide basis.
