#1 Iran halts key nuclear work to avoid sanctions

And, they initiated a sales campaign on an "original" Omar Khayyam manuscript, complete with Times New Roman superscripts.

#2 Boy, threats of triggering UN sanctions....I'll bet the MMs are shaking in their curly toed slippers. Meanwhile, the olde Hex is a-spinnin' merrily away in the centrifuges.

#3 ElBaradei... ElBaradei...

Isn't that the UN employee, who by the way was the former head of Egyptian nuke program, who recently leaked disinformation in order to manipulate the US Presidential Election?

When shall he meet his effect?

#4 In a few weeks the mullahs will state something like 'for energy purposes' they needed to once again continue with their nuclear 'energy' program. The U.N. will allow for further extentions etc. Meanwhile methods of total regimÃ© change is underway, without U.N. involvement.

#5 They've never stopped - anything. They've never slowed down - anything. Total farce, total disinfo, total lies, total joke - and it's on every wanker who thinks they've have any effect whatsoever on the Mad Mullahs - especially the E3. Elbaradai is either complicit or imbecilic - either way, a fool and tool.

There is only one course of action that will belay their acquiring a nuke and using it: their eradication. Then the joke will be funny. Damned funny.

#7 All of this wrangling back and forth only puts Israel in the 'hot seat' as the Wild Card to watch! Israel WILL strike Iran even if it knows it's preemptive targets won't achieve regime change;(hedging their bet, the US backs it's ally) for the subsequent retaliative offense!

Israel will 'trigger the web' that will subdue our "catch"!

#10 smn, have you considered that maybe Israel can't reach out and whack Iran sufficiently violently and comprehensively?

I'm concerned EU politicians are calculating that Israel will eventually and devastatingly be attacked by Iran. It wouldn't be the first time the EU acts against the interests of Jews. I don't think EUniks realize what Israel could and would do in such circumstances (the lack of response to Saddam's missiles during GW I was bad and misleading in that respect).

I think the liberation of Kuwait 1991 and Iraq 2003 have saved us from certain WMD-based war provoked by Saddam. I'm worried Iran has been left free to pursue its own mad purpose in the last 25 years.

What will happen if (when) the US starts bombing Iran? will we lose the support of the UK? or will Blair sack Jack Straw? just before running for his own re-election? I suppose we need to have the elections in Iraq first. Then what happened in Fallujah may seem to be small compared to what will happen in Iran. I hope.

Much Much Faster, please.
