| Iran says it will intensify nuclear program |
| 2006-08-07 |
 Iran's nuclear negotiator, Ali Larijani, said Sunday that his country would not freeze uranium enrichment, and would instead intensify its nuclear program. Larijani rejected the UN resolution passed last week that calls on Iran to suspend enrichment activity by August 31 or face sanctions. |

| #9 Ah-dinnerjacket wants Bush to react to the rhetoric now - oil prices skyrocket and the Dems win in the November election. Seems pretty obvious to me. Let's review things again in late Nov. |

| #8 I, too, fear you are right, Intrinsicpilot. The need for Iran's leadership to be decapitated or dismantled is so glaring that a person must be brain-dead to ignore it. That we are forced to sit around waiting for yet one more devastating atrocity is simply criminal. Why the current administration is not playing up Iran's incessant exacerbation of Middle East tensions utterly confounds me. Ahmadinejad has done all but beg for us to bomb the crap out of them. We really need to take this psycho nutjob at his word and begin demolishing Iran's military and (if needed) economic infrastructure. |

| #7 Whats with the holdup on Iran? In our face with the nukes. Chatting with NKor. Supplying Hez and Syria. F-ing around with us in Iraq. Harboring and sponsiring terrorists. Threatening to withhold oil. How many reasons do we need? Unfortunately, I fear we will need in excess of 3,000. |

| #4 So is this the response to the formal proposal? I thought they were going to reveal something on August 22, and they have previoulsy said they'd need until August 31st to 'study' the proposal. Good cop, bad cop? |

| #1 No surprise here - iff this were a narrow-scope Jessica Simpson movie, means they wanna go from being the blue-collar "Dukes of Hazard", i.e. "white trash" or less of Global Monotheism, to being Boss Hogg/Big Boss in town. |
