Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Iran terrified by UN resolution
2006-03-31

(2006-03-30) — The United Nations Security Council yesterday passed a resolution calling on Iran to halt uranium enrichment by the end of April or face the looming specter of a “virtual mushroom cloud” of additional Security Council discussions and resolutions.

Iran immediately called the non-binding resolution “a terrifying deployment of words that threatens our women, our children and our peaceful way of life.”

The measure, which carries no consequences for non-compliance, nevertheless contains active verbs, challenging vocabulary and deliberate punctuation that pose a “clear and present danger” to the people of Iran, according to an unnamed spokesman for the Islamic Republic.

“The brutal thugs on the Security Council have us over a barrel,” the Iranian source said. “Our people are filled with fear. We are at the mercy of the United Nations.”

Holding one-tenth of the worldÂ’s known oil reserves and the second largest natural gas reserves, Iran desperately needs enriched uranium only to generate electricity, and not to make nuclear weapons to wipe Israel from the map.

I hope you are right. I hope it is all not too late.

WTF ? A tsunami of shame is upon them. They are drowning in guilt and remorse. Doubt and mistrust have collapsed their homes and mosques into piles of dust. It's almost enough to make one blow himself up in a group of innocent people.

#2  He forgot the part where they were shaking in their jackboots over the "language used". And the fact that there was a "referal" was terrifying. They were wondering if sanctions were offered, they could go to kofi's son and get the cash bag for "oil for food". The Germans even thought they seemed serious about not sending anymore technology but since russia and france was, they figgured "might as well" Besides, with friends like China, who needs the UN - or the USA - or the Joos for that matter.

History repeats itself.
