Hopefully you are aware that as usual America is using its same tactics that it did with Iraq to influence the U.N. vote

Answer 1

The threat of Iran was well known before the Iraq war. Now with the US troops stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan we are in a strategic position to attack Iran. This would not have been necessary if the leaders of Iran were reasonable but talking with them is pointless. They want nuclear weapons to change the balance of power in the Middle East - to establish a borderless Shiite caliphate. Do you want to support the cheers of "Hail Caliph Khamenei"?

The UN Security Council has reviewed the report from the Director General of the IAEA regarding whether Iran has established full and sustained suspension of all uranium enrichment and research activities. However, the UNSC will wait to consider possible actions until after the European Union's foreign policy chief, Javier Solana, meets with Ali Larijani, Iran's top nuclear negotiator, sometime in the middle of next week to seek a negotiated solution to the standoff over Tehran's refusal to freeze uranium enrichment.

The UNSC may take measures under Article 41 of Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations to persuade Iran to comply with Resolution 1696 and the requirements of the IAEA. The UNSC will use diplomatic and economic sanctions including a ban on missile and nuclear technology to Tehran; international refusal to grant entry visas to those involved in Iran’s nuclear program and a freeze of their assets as well as a ban on investment in the country. Don't count on Russia and China to block that sanction vote. But if they do, there are other alternatives.

Although sanctions may not be enough, it is worth the effort. Since Natanz, the nuclear research facility is underground, simply a massive EMP explosion in the atmosphere to knock out all electronics would not be sufficient.

Russia has repeatedly urged Iran to stop enriching uranium. Russis said it "regrets" Iran's decision not to halt uranium enrichment by the deadline. Some time ago Russia offered to sell Iran its enriched uranium to use in the power plant and has offered to help Iran construct a "light water" facility. Instead Iran opted to construct a "heavy water" facility which was recently opened at Arak. The underground research facility at Natanz

Mohammad Nabi Rudaki stated that 164 centrifuge sets are now enriching uranium up to 4.5 percent grade to provide nuclear fuel for industrial and power plant needs and that Iran will soon enrich uranium to the grade of 9 percent in 3000 centrifuge sets.

China has far more trade with the US than with Iran and although it competes with the US for oil, it receives roughly one quarter of OPEC oil.

The authority in Iran is the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei. He is appointed for life. He wants to change the balance of power by havin a nuclear weapon. He wants to establish a Shiite Muslim caliphate starting with Iran, Iraq, (maybe Syria) and Lebanon. He has apocalyptic tendencies so the end of the world would seem to be within Allah's plan to his way of thinking.

If the Islamic leaders were a little less apocalyptic, perhaps a diplomatic solution might be found. Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei wants to be the Shiite Caliph from Iran through Iraq to Lebanon. He needs to shift the balance of power in his favor.

U.S. Central Command is updating a target list for Iran. Retired Gen. McInerney advocates using B-2 stealth bombers, cruise missiles and jet fighters to conduct a one- or two-day bombing campaign to take out Iran's air defenses, military facilities and about 40 nuclear targets, which includes a Russian-built reactor and an enrichment plant at Bushehr. Israel has drafted plans for air strikes using long-range versions of the F-15 and F-16 fighters.

On August 22 Ali Larijani, hand delivered Iran's 21-page response to UNSC 1696 the package of incentives to dissuage Iran from uranium enrichment. Iran's top nuclear negotiator said that Tehran was ready to enter "serious negotiations" over its disputed nuclear program but did not say that it was willing to suspend uranium enrichment — the West's key demand. The West is still offering many economic incentives.

On August 19, Iran launched a large-scale area, sea and ground exercise he maneuver, the Blow of Zolfaghar (the sword used by Imam Ali), which involved 12 divisions, army Chinook helicopters, unmanned planes, parachutists, electronic war units and special forces. Iran's state-run television reported that the new anti-aircraft system was tested "to make Iranian air space unsafe for our enemies."

On Sunday, August 20, in the Kashan desert about 250 kilometers southeast of the capital of Tehran, Iran tested the Saegheh missile which has a range of between 80 to 250 kilometers. Saegheh means lightning in Farsi. (The language of Iran is not Arabic and Iranians are not Arabs.)
Iran's arsenal also contains the Shahab-3 missile, which means "shooting star" in Farsi, and is capable of carrying a nuclear warhead. It has a range of more than 2,000 kilometers and can reach Israel and US forces in the Middle East.

Iran's military test-fired a series of missiles during large-scale war games in the Persian Gulf in March and April, including a missile it claimed was not detectable by radar that can use multiple warheads to hit several targets simultaneously.

On August 23, 2006 an article about Iran's reply to the incentives proposal, that was posted on the Iranian Foreign Ministry-affiliated website , implied that Iran's nuclear technology had already reached the point of no return: "...

The following are excerpts from the Al-Borz report:

"It is expected that the first anniversary of the forming of the ninth government will be the date of the Ahmadinejad government's 'nuclear birth.'

"... Together with [the celebration of] the anniversary of the forming of the ninth cabinet, the president of the country [Mahmoud Ahmadinejad] will hold his third press conference... where he will answer questions from journalists from Iran and from abroad.

"In addition to detailing the activities of the government at the end of [its first] year, the head of the government [i.e. Ahmadinejad] will officially present Iran's positions on: economic and cultural matters, the nuclear dossier, the activities of nuclear research centers, and developments in the region."

Iran has been persistent to deter IAEA inspectors on certain properties which had been agreed to under the NPT (nuclear non-proliferation treaty.)

Ali Soltanieh, Iran's permanent representative to the IAEA, denied that Iran had refused UN inspectors' access to its underground nuclear facilities at Natanz in central Iran. Iran needs to enrich uranium as a peaceful, alternative energy source and has the right to do so under the NPT, according to Iranian officials. They have told the IAEA that the traces of enriched uranium came from equipment purchased from another country, which was already contaminated.

Iran does not allow for remote monitoring of the PFEP (Pilot Fuel Enrichment Plant). Or monitoring of the PHRC (Physics Research Center). Or monitoring of the P-1 and P-2 centrifuges which it purchased from Pakistan.

Iran delenda est.

Answer 2

So tell us, how much oil have we gained by fighting ISLAMOFASCISM in Iraq. No more than we had before.

Why do stupid people always want to point the finger at oil as the cause? Are they unaware of terrorists strapping bombs on children and killing innocent people? Are they unaware of the WTC buildings being hit by airplanes under the command of ISLAMOFASCISTS?

Are they so mentally ill that they refuse to acknowledge that if we do not stop Iran from developing a nuclear weapon that the weapon will be used in the USA?

When will this mental illness be stopped, liberal paranoia is a disease.

Answer 3

I even have been clinically determined with known stress sickness and that i constantly concept i may be terrible at kissing, that i did not should kiss every physique. yet i'm greater clever now. I nonetheless have not had intercourse and am nervous approximately that, yet i think of it is common for various youthful girls human beings.

Answer 4

oil? Oil?? OIL????

I think the threat from Iran is nuclear. Sure, they have oil and is one of the largest exporters of it. But that's not why we are having tensions with them. It is the nuclear program. Everyone knows they intend to produce a nuclear bomb.

Be wise...even the democrats in the US, and the governments of France, Germany, China, Russia, Italy, etc all agree on this.

Answer 5

I don't know about the quench for oil but this ruling by fear is getting old. If you don't believe a certain way you'd better fear!!! If you don't vote a certain way you'd better fear!! Isn't it time to really stand up and confront these issues in a civilized manner?? We didn't used to think this way, what's happened to our logic??

Answer 6

The Big Lie lives on!
It worked for the Nazi's, and now, unless we the American people
wake up & exercise our right to vote, the war mongers out of office, The Big lie will continue until someday people will be reading about the Fall of the american Empire.

Answer 7

when he gets hold of all the gulf of arabia's oil wells.he already has iraq's oil.why is he being so greedy now!he's like a child that you give a cookie to but then wants five cookies or the whole pack!

Answer 8

a pre-emptive nuke strike is in order. have a "accident" at Iran's plant by detonating a low yield device launced from above.

Everyone could scream look at them rags heads, they blew themselves up.

Answer 9

If it was really about oil, I would think that the entire UN wouldn't have such a problem with Iran pursuing nuclear technology.
Iran is violating the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. That's a problem.
The Iranian president has claimed that he wants to wipe Israel off the map (this is NOT just in our news, but in news all over the world), and has also claimed that the Holocaust never happened.
Is this the kind of person that should have nuclear technology?
No one ever said Iran in itself is a threat. The Iranian people are kind, noble, and strong.
It's the Iranian GOVERNMENT that's the problem, and the UN (including the US) is trying to resolve the problem without bloodshed.
Is there a problem with this?

Answer 10

Inasmuch as the language is the same, Iran INDEED has threatened the US and does possess nuclear capabilities. However, the same was not true for Iraq, who had neither of these. Why do you think Bush is not saying "bring it on" to Iran? He KNOWS they mean business and they are backed by China, Russia AND North Korea.

Answer 11

N-E-V-E-R.

And they laughed at us when, after America invaded Iraq, we said Iran and Syria are next.

Well, well, well...who's laughing now?
