U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Saturday that time is running out for diplomacy over Iran’s nuclear program and said negotiations are set to resume in mid-April.
Speaking to reporters attending a security conference in Saudi Arabia, Clinton said, “It is up to Iran whether they are ready to make the right choice…What is certain is that Iran’s window of opportunity to seek and obtain a peaceful resolution will not remain open forever.”
To say that time is running out may have been an allusion to the Israeli government’s warnings that a unilateral strike – preventive war – on Iran is impending. This, despite a consensus in the U.S.-Israeli military and intelligence community that Iran is not developing nuclear weapons and that launching an unprovoked war would be dangerous and counterproductive.
“It soon will be clear whether Iran’s leaders are prepared to have a serious, credible discussion about their nuclear program, whether they are ready to start building the basis of a resolution to this very serious problem,” Clinton said.
But Clinton’s stated distrust in the Iranians’ sincerity in negotiating is rather laughable considering the Obama administration’s 2010 rejection of Iran’s agreement to their own proposed nuclear deal and the subsequent economic sanctions regime, punishing Iran for the high crime of not developing nuclear weapons.
At what point does Obama get a spine and tell Hillary that she has turned into John Bolton and her services are no longer needed? The Zionist zealots and traitors at State have deliberately sabotaged any meaningful negotiations with Iran for years.Think Victoria Nuland, Mark Toner, Dennis Ross and these are the more visable ones.
did Obama not say the same thing a couple of days ago?
Mass murderer obomber is just as spineless as killary ! After the Rebellion, they will all face trials for their crimes against humanity !
When has sanity and reason ever governed the lunatics in high office? Precious little and all too seldom.
Obama has embarked on a course of action seeking to remove several million barrels a day of Iranian crude from international markets. He intends to do this and yet keep the price of oil steady, perhaps with the help of the Saudis and the American petroleum reserve. Does he think he is King Canute and able to command the international market for crude oil, with its many players, to obey him?
If he fails and the law of supply and demand coupled with all the unknowns which routinely effect commodities markets drive up the price of crude what is he going to do? Loose the election because gasoline now costs $6/gal or start bombing Iran? It seems to me the USA is rapidly approaching the point of no return and the chances of avoiding a war with Iran are rapidly declining.
Anyone who opposes these wars, and anyone who opposes a war with Iran, CAN NOT VOTE for these people again.
A vote for Obama is clearly a vote for a war with Iran. If you want war, vote Obama.
Yeh Yeh Yeh, if you want to see the reason for US wanting to change regimes in Iran and Syria, go to chrom.com and look at a taken while Hillary visiting Saudi, a photo where Hillary Clinton, Saudi, UAE and rest of those who cooperating with US and EU are present. The photo is not significant, what is significant is the picture of Saudi map, the shape of Saudi Arabia and rest of the area where they see it as their land, is written in Arabic. At the same time the way that this map is framed is interesting, the frame is in shape of Pentagon, or the David Star which is worthy of attention. Perhaps is coincident but what is happening in the area and looking at that photo tells me something that there is something about Saudis and UAE wanting to expend their territories using Pentagon, in this case Hillary Clinton is the go between and Terrorisms, or left overs terrorist from Iraq, Afghanistan and US – EU mercenaries are the paid foot solders.
Clinton is one little hawk who can fly on her own war-mongering wings.
Clinton is also the first secretary of state with her own private army. Who dreamed up the very stupid situation were the secretary of state can state a war and then drag the rest of the natoin into it. Clinton has entered the dark zone. She should dress in black and wear a mask like in star war. She has clearly become the agent of the empire. She has done more damage to the Untied States than Richard Nixon who she started her career attacking.
Same inevitablism that preceded the invasion of Iraq (gotta wonder if this is just saving face). Headlines read e.g. "Showdown With Saddam" "Time Running Out For Iraq" …I'm sure there was some use of 'Countdown' imagery as well. It was about demoralizing any fool who knew the case was bunk. Questions to ask Clinton/Obama directly wrt such remarks might include: 'now did you exhaust plans A, B, and C; or are you just on Step C?' 'Are we to infer that your patience is running out, or was the Israeli agenda driving your worthless @$$ the whole time?' 'Who's your new Curveball?' 'And will this one be a cakewalk, too?' …
The theme of inevitability has the same function on the Footbal field. If you hear a politician pushing it, remember it's the same dang thing as what you'd hear on the offensive line that begins with "I'm agonna." Call him on it, mock him, hit first. Shrivel his pair some more. …just sayin'
Gotta protect that Jewish/American vote…because despite repeated statements of denial, Ms Pantsuit is definitely on the train for the 2016 ticket.
Our Lady of the Pantsuits–power-lusting megalomaniac that she is–is probably angling for 2016.
What diplomacy? There has been no diplomacy.
better worry about her own time, looks half dead already.
anyone dumb enough to buy into this warmongering hag's bucket of bull$hit deserves to get burned. Some of us knew in '02 Iraq was a load of garbage. You aren't fooling all of us, Hitlery
Obviously, Clinton is toxic._Since when can the US impose threats and sanctions against a foreign country that is innocent of any of the fabricated and unsubstantiated accusations that are made by the US and Israel?_Talk about double standards._This is totally unacceptable._ _
She should be thrown in with Manson, same mindset,.along with greed. Its hard to believe some
one could be so evil and praised by the media. But it happens over and over. A low life former hippie
heading up our state department shows how low this country has sunk since the 60's. And it is all
about money.
