Clinton Reiterates Claim Iran Violating NPT
Secretary of State Again Offers No Evidence
Reiterating an argument she had repeatedly made over the past week, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton again declared that Iran was in violation of the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
Clinton warned that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, heading to the United Nations for the NPT conference, would not be permitted to try to “change the story” from the administration’s repeated claims about Iran’s civilian nuclear program.
Despite the repeated claims to that effect, and the Obama Administration’s endless other allegations, the US has provided absolutely no evidence that Iran is in any way in violation of the NPT, but instead has refused to comply with UN Security Council demands to suspend its civilian enrichment program, something which has absolutely nothing to do with its NPT obligations.
While the Obama Administration has much bigger issues at the upcoming conference, they are certain to make time for claims about the Iranian civilian program.

HillBillary warns Iran about being truthful. Remember it was Sadaam Hussein who was telling the truth about Iraqs WMD and it was Bush/Cheney who were lying to the American people whom have been forged into mindlessness, the inability to discern their own and/or the thoughts of others from facts or the truth. This can be attibuted to over 70 years of corporate and government propaganda which has forged Americans into NARCISSICTIC, CONSUMERIST, GLUTTONS. The evidence is easily observed daily and each minute on TV. Mindlessness is recited by governments, businesses, churches for public consumption.

bogi … you are insulting real and decent 'hillbillies' by the way you refer to this New York rich girl.
——————————
When someone or some organization lies to you constantly, at what point do you demand proof and evidence?
For example, lets say you were the head of some populist organization. And from that role you made claim after claim and issued news release after news release that all turned out to be lies over time. After you'd been caught lying many times, would you expect any 'news' organization to listen to you, put any credence in your claims, or publish anything you said? Certainly they'd start to demand some proof or evidence before printing your claims.
If you want to know just how awful and how much of a propaganda system our US 'news' system is, take note of the fact that they take the constantly repeat claims like this despite the US gov having been caught repeatedly in lies about both WMDs and Iran for the last decade. And they print it without a bit of proof from the US gov, and despite constant proof to the contrary.
Which means you should turn off or refuse to buy any 'news' outlet that repeats these claims without supporting evidence.

I wish someone would make a video of Condi Rice and Hillary both saying exactly the same sorts of things, but using a 'morph' effect to switch back and forth between the two.
Hillary is saying exactly the same things about Iran that Condi used to say. Proves that they only thing an American election changes is the hair style of the people on the tv.

Part 1 of 3
It is astonishing how the politicians and their media get away with lies, or twisted half-truths.
On the Iranian issues their lies are truly “legendary” !.
Is the assertion of “Ahmadinejad wants to wipe Israel off the map” a lie? Yes as an article in antiwar.com showed that lie could be labelled as “Rumor of the Century”
( http://www.antiwar.com/orig/norouzi.php?articleid… )
What about the fraud in June 2009 Iranian Election? Now we know there was “no know fraud” as Flint Leverett asserted in recent Charlie Rose interview. .
Since June 2009 the Scholar familiar with Probability and Statistics are studying the data of election. Not a single credible evidence of fraud is ever found…(what a mind boggling conclusion)
Did American statisticians of TFT and WPO, the British (GlobeScan) and the Iranians (University of Tehran and Iranian Interior Ministry) covertly colluded to fabricate “same” matching results? Of course not.

By the way, why Israel is not a member of NPT?
Why no one questions Israel on this issue?

Part 2
There are half a dozen other credible ways to prove the election was legitimate.
It seems Iranian regime was careful not to hand over another excuse to its determined enemies…..they digitized all the ballots and challenged the West to find a single mismatch. (Any fraud could have been detected by repeated random selection of a polling station, finger-print matching of someone who had voted for Mousavi there). No one in the Western Media reported this critical challenge (except Leveretts/Marandi in Politico )….and, for obvious reasons no one took the challenge.
Congress passed a resolution condemning the fraud and mistreatment of the protestors (who killed 9 policemen). Only Ron Pual voted no ! (Senate past a similar resolution…….the condemnation vote was unanimous ! )
NYT, WaPo, Fox and nearly all the rest are still repeating the same gross lie. That is very telling.

And she'll continue to "reiterate" it because that is what ISRAEL has ORDERED her to do. Where is our national SHAME in all of this?
