The US and Western allies appear to be renewing their push for “crippling” sanctions against Iran, though they have already conceded that such moves are unlikely in the next several months and opposition seems to remain in place.
Officials in Turkey once again reiterated their opposition to sanctions against Iran, despite threats from the US State Department that they could face “consequences” for refusing to back the US measure in the UN Security Council.
China, on the other hand, agreed to join in the “substantive talks” on additional sanctions against Iran, though the Chinese ambassador insisted that the nation remains an advocate of diplomacy.
Russia, which has played a role in building some of Iran’s civilian nuclear infrastructure, has said they would support limited sanctions, but that they remain opposed to the punitive sanctions proposed by the US.
The US continues to insist that the sanctions are need to stop an Iranian nuclear weapon program, despite their own National Intelligence Estimate noting that no such program exists and officials have provided no evidence to the contrary.
It is amazing that our political prostitutes in America consistanly pantering to Israeli lobby AIPAC(anti Iranian political action council).in determint to the Americans interest. Israel cannot survive 24 hours without the United States support,but as we have seen lately,the Israeli government officials instead being greatfull for the American support they are fliping their middle finger to the United States.It is about time to say enough is enough,and dump the Israel,and let them to take care of themselves,and see how long they will last.
Just preparation for the next war!
When was there the last US president who was not involved in a war? They come and go in the White House, but are war criminals all together! IMO, there is NO difference between GWB and Obama. The US is only existing and prospering by making wars to others!

Ah yes, fictionalize a linkage and seem to champion Palestinians against Israel's Right Wing, but continue to try to tighten the noose around Iran, which is really what both the Israel and the US elite are after.
Selected Europeans, naturally, cooperate–even in the settlement ploy.
Will it work?
In a word—no.
Why not?
In another word–China.
But there is a differance between Bush and Obama–IsraelFirsters hate Obama just as they did Jimmy Carter.The health care plan will be the downfall of Obama, just as was the intentional high interest rates brought in to oust Jimmy Peanut Farmer. O'Bama is a Big Sap :^(

LMAO that those who cheered on Bush's torture chambers and other war crimes are now screeching in outrage – calling Obama 'Hitler' no less – for delivering health care to the uninsured. Far more American taxpayer money was squandered on Bush's slaughter in Iraq, not to mention the million dead civillians, but they're pissed when an impoverished kid receives a band-aid from the State? The priorities of the 'family values' crowd knows no shame.
God Bless America.
IF US TO SEEK JUSTIFICATION TO DIRECTLY CONFRONT IRAN VIA ENFORCING NEW SANCTION THEN IRAN UNITED WITH ALL MIDEAST NATIONS MUST RESPOND THIS ACT OF WAR WITH NUKES FOR SELF DEFENSE!
