Iran ‘poses major US challenge’<\/strong><\/div>\n

\t \t Iran may pose a greater challenge than any other nation to the US, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice<\/a> has said.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\t \t <\/strong><Sian Phillips><\/font>Here it comes…<\/Sian Phillips><\/font><\/p>\n

She said Iran was determined to develop nuclear weapons,<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So what.<\/p>\n

was the “central banker for terrorism” in the Middle East<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Nonsense.<\/p>\n

and was a block to democracy.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s a nasty job, but someone’s got to do it.<\/em><\/p>\n

Her comments to a Congressional hearing in Washington came as Iran vowed to resist international pressure over its nuclear programme.<\/p>\n

Iran insists it has the right to civilian nuclear technology.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It does, and it also has the right to Nuclear Weapons if Pakistan, India and Isreal do.<\/p>\n

It denies accusations from the US and EU that it is seeking to develop nuclear weapons.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Good!<\/p>\n

\t \t Sanctions threat \t \t <\/strong><\/p>\n

Ms Rice said: “We may face no greater challenge from a single country than from Iran, whose policies are directed at developing a Middle East that would be 180 degrees different than the Middle East that we would like to see develop.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is a truthful statement, simply because it puts the conflict in crystal clear terms; it doesnt say that Iran is wrong, or that the US is on the side of right. It simply says that Iran is opposed to US domination, and wants a different outcome.<\/p>\n

Ms Rice said Iran seemed determined “to develop a nuclear weapon in defiance of the international community”.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is meaningless. Iraq was invaded in defiance of ‘the international community’. So what?<\/p>\n

She added: “Iranian support for terrorism is retarding, and in some cases, helping to arrest the growth of democratic and stable governments [in the Middle East].”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n

This is the line that spurred me to post this nonsense. Iraq was a stable country before the US turned its evil gaze upon it. It would be stabe right now had no invasion taken place. This is the TRUE reality, the USA is a destabilizing force, bringing death, disorder and chaos wherever their attention focuses.<\/div>\n

Earlier, Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said his country would continue its drive towards mastering nuclear technology.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

They talk big talk, but they never pull it off.<\/p>\n

“The Iranian people and the officials of the Islamic republic of Iran, more powerful than before and like steel, will stand against any pressure or conspiracy,” he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“We will make them drink poison”. Stop blathering, hurry up and splode your warez so that a new war can be averted!<\/p>\n

A report written by the International Atomic Energy Agency has been forwarded to the UN Security Council.<\/p>\n

The document, leaked to the media last week, says the Iranians have begun feeding uranium gas into centrifuges, a first step in a process that can produce fuel for nuclear reactors or bomb material.<\/p>\n

The Security Council is expected to discuss the issue as early as next week.<\/p>\n

The council has the power to impose sanctions, but it is not clear that all its key members would back them.<\/p>\n

Is it the oil bourse or not?<\/div>\n
Are they trying for nukes or not?<\/div>\n
Is the draft coming back or not?<\/div>\n
Are you going to pay for this one too, or not?<\/div>\n
Are you sick of it yet, or not?<\/div>\n
\n
‘The CNN’<\/a> has what feels like a cleaner report, including this excellent quote:<\/div>\n
\n
Meanwhile, Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, said the U.S. focus on Iran’s nuclear programs was a “pretext” for what he called its “psychological war” against Iran and its Islamic system of government.”Whenever the U.S. pretext lost its effect for any reason, immediately it brought up another one, given its belief that continued psychological war … is the best way to confront the Islamic system,” Khamenei said, according to the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency.<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
