Another round of P5+1 talks on Iran sanctions was held today, with French officials touting the talks as “moving forward” and insisting that all the nations were “on board.”
The claim was of course in direct contradiction to comments made by China only yesterday that they most assuredly are not in favor of sanctions, and they reiterated today that all they came out of the meeting with was an understanding of the other nations’ positions.
The US State Department reiterated its position today that the need for sanctions was “urgent” and the Obama Administration has indicated that they must have them in place within a matter of weeks. Despite this alleged urgency, officials concede Iran would likely not be able to produce a single deliverable atomic weapon for as many as six years, and that they still are not even attempting the production of any weapons grade uranium.
The US claims that Iran is in violation of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty (NPT), a claim which it has yet to support with concrete evidence. But Iran appears poised to use the upcoming NPT talks to show that these issues work both ways. Reportedly, Iranian officials are planning to press allegations that both the US and Britain are in violation of their own NPT commitments.
The Iran issue is only "urgent" to Washington because last November Iran went off the dollar as their reserve currency. The last country in the middle east to do that was Saddam Hussein's Iraq just before we became concerned about "weapons of mass destruction."
Hussein signed his death warrant when he did that.
It's time for McCain and his sidekick Lieberman to grab a rifle and survival knife, fly over to Tehran, and save of us from those evil mullahs.
It seems like it's Israel that's out of bounds. They are the ones that are without IAEA approval and no inspections.
"Celui qui a compris cette existence en fait purement théorique du bluff, gagnera en se guidant sur ses cartes ; et les réactions connues des adversaires. Si l’autre veut bluffer, je n’ai rien à en savoir ; et lui croira souvent au contraire que je bluff, comme il voudra, selon ses propres rêves…."
Guy Debord
U.S. is absolutely wrong on the Iran issue. What is so complicated about Iran that U.S. is having trouble with? Is'nt the real issue related to the Israeli agents within the government forcing us into another illegal and murderous war with a country that despite the daily threats of war by the U.S. and Israel, has never threaten us or Israel.
While Iran is calling ( and has been calling ) to eliminate the entire nuclear weopons from the face of the earth, we are pretending to reduce them but maintain enough to blow up the earth five times over! Where is the logic? We have no indication of Iran trying to produce a nuclear bomb. Are we going to again allow the agents of a foreign country who have penetrated the most crucial parts of our government drag us into another war and sacrifice our blood and treasure so that harass, chase and murder their neighbors. Is it not time for us to wake up and concentrate our efforts to create an environment of peace throughout the world guided by the United States of America?
The hypocrisy is astounding – – – Israel, an unacknowledged nuclear power is regularly threatening to nuke Iran, yet not a word, a peep! is mentioned about sanctions, IAEA inspectors, don't dare hold them to the same standards as everyone else and gulp! FORCE them to sign the NPT! Heavens no, then they wouldn't be the Chosen Ones, instead on the same level like the Goyim and Arab roaches and animals!
But Iran's imaginary nuclear arsenal is a threat, somehow, maybe someday if they ever make them, deserving no less than – – -you guessed it! NUCLEAR DEVASTATION!!
The mind reels…
