"Iranian official scoffs at nuclear terms; Says nation won’t ship out uranium cache for fuel rods" by Borzou Daragahi, Los Angeles Times | November 19, 2009
TRIPOLI, Libya - US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said the medical-research-swap proposal was final, drawing chastisement from Mottaki.
“Diplomacy is not zero percent or 100 percent,’’ Mottaki said. “So the statement by Mrs. Clinton that Iran has no choice but to accept the proposal is undiplomatic.’’
Man, even the Iranians can see it!

SEOUL - The Brussels meeting will include the UN Security Council’s permanent members - Britain, China, France, Russia, and the United States - plus Germany, said Cristina Gallach, EU spokeswoman. She said it would bring together foreign ministry officials from the six nations “to take stock of the situation.’’
Any new sanctions would probably take months to enact. China, always reluctant to support sanctions, offered no assurances that it would agree to punish Iran.
Thank you, China!

Iranian Foreign Minister Manochehr Mottaki played down the threat of sanctions, saying embargoes have proved ineffective in the past. “I think they are wise enough not to repeat failed experiences,’’ Mottaki told reporters yesterday in Manila.
I don't know!!!
Were are talking the psychopaths of USrael here.
They haven't learned yet!

In a related development, diplomats in Vienna said IAEA inspectors paid a second visit to Iran’s recently revealed Fordo uranium enrichment facility yesterday....
Yes, IRAN is COOPERATING and being COMPLETELY REASONABLE!

"West weighs new sanctions for Iran; US developing steps to convey ‘our seriousness’" by Steven Erlanger, New York Times | November 21, 2009
Related: The Pinnacle of Propaganda
Are we clear, readers?
PARIS - Senior officials from Western powers discussed the possibility of new sanctions on Iran yesterday for flouting the UN Security Council’s demands and expressed disappointment that Iran had not accepted a draft agreement to export most of its enriched uranium for nuclear fuel.
The officials met in Brussels to discuss where matters stood with Iran and the possibility of new sanctions should Iran continue to play for time. While a joint statement after the meeting was expressed in diplomatic language, the meeting was a sign of exasperation with Iran.
You know, I'M GETTING IMPATIENT with WESTERN WAR-MONGERING!!!!!!!!
Even President Obama, who has been most willing to give Iran time to decide on the proposal, as a means to broader negotiations with the United States, said Thursday in South Korea that because Iran had not agreed to the proposal, the United States would begin “developing a package of potential steps that we could take that will indicate our seriousness to Iran.’’
Iran has rejected an understanding reached with its representatives on Oct. 1 to remove about 2,600 pounds of lightly enriched uranium - about 70 percent of its known supplies - so it can be processed in Russia and France into nuclear fuel for a reactor in Tehran used to make medical isotopes.
Why should they agree? They have EVERY LEGAL RIGHT to DO THEIR OWN!!!
THEY SIGNED the NUCLEAR NON-PROLIFERATION TREATY and ARE ABIDING BY IT!!!! Why isn't anyone asking the same of Israel?! Or India?
Oh, right, they are ALLIES who did NOT SIGN the treaty but DEVELOPED NUCLEAR WEAPONS anyway (oh, Gandhi is turning in his... well.... they chucked his ashes into the Ganges, so.... )!!!
Iran has privately insisted that it will not export any uranium until it receives the fuel, undermining the point of the exercise, which was to bring Iran’s stockpiles below the level required to construct a nuclear weapon. Iran insists that its nuclear program is for peaceful nuclear energy; most of the world believes Iran is trying to build a nuclear bomb.
EXCUSE ME, NYT?
Who is "MOST" of the world?
Your little USraeli club?
“We are disappointed by the lack of followup to the three understandings reached’’ in Geneva on Oct. 1, the officials said yesterday in a statement issued in Brussels on behalf of the European Union, the United States, Russia, China, France, Germany, and Britain. The officials urged Iran “to reconsider the opportunity offered by this agreement to meet the humanitarian needs of its people and to engage seriously with us in dialogue and negotiations.’’ They said they would meet again soon “to complete our assessment of the situation and to decide on our next steps.’’
You know what that is code for, right, readers?
Well, if you do not, the Iranians do:

"Iran to hold war games to protect nuclear sites" by ALI AKBAR DAREINI, Associated Press | November 21, 2009
TEHRAN, Iran -- Iran will begin large-scale air defense war games Sunday aimed at protecting its nuclear facilities from possible attack, a senior military commander said Saturday, reflecting the country's concern that Israel could make good on threats to strike militarily.
Oh, I TAKE the ISRAELIS at their word on that one, too!!
The ONLY TIME I EVER DO is when they TALK WAR!!!
The drill comes as a top clerical official renewed his threat to target "the heart of Tel Aviv" should Israel attack Iran. The five-day drill will involve Iran's elite Revolutionary Guard and the regular army and will cover 230,000 square miles - or about 600,000 square kilometers - of central, western and southern Iran, said air force Gen. Ahmad Mighani....
A planned key component of Iran's air defenses, an anti-aircraft missile system from Russia, has yet to be delivered. Mighani criticized Russia, saying the months-long delay in the S-300 missiles was apparently the result of Israeli pressure, not technical issues, as Moscow claims.
They have SOMETHING on EVERYONE, I swear!
Israel and the United States have opposed the missile deal out of fear Iran could use the system to significantly boost defenses at its nuclear sites....
Yeah, BOOST their DEFENSES!!!!!! KEY DIFFERENCE there!!!!
The representative of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to the Guard, warned Saturday that Iranian missiles will target Tel Aviv should an Israeli missile land in Iran.
You know, they are REALLY SAYING DON'T DO THIS!
From where I'm sitting, IRAN has done EVERYTHING IT CAN to AVOID WAR!!!
Ball in YOUR COURT, USraeli war criminals!!!!
"If the enemy want to test its bad luck and fire a missile into Iran, before the dust settles, Iran's ballistic missiles will target the heart of Tel Aviv," Mojtaba Zolnour told the official IRNA news agency.
I'm even past the point of appealing to Zionist survival instincts.
You guys want to destroy yourselves, be my guest.
I'll be waiting for you in hell where I will feast upon your internal organs!
Iran and Israel are archenemies and anti-Israeli stance is a trademark for the hardline Guard.
Of course, USrael does NOT maintain an ANTI-IRANIAN STANCE, does it?
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has since 2005 often predicted demise for the Jewish state.
I'm not even going there right now.
Israeli military and government officials refused to comment on the planned war games.
Iran restructured its military this year in an effort to improve its air defenses. The changes were seen as part of a broader focus on bolstering the military by Tehran, which has been concerned about the U.S. military's presence in neighboring Iraq and Afghanistan as well as the Israeli threats to target its nuclear facilities.
Now WOULDN'T YOU BE CONCERNED if SOMEONE was DOING THAT TO YOU?
What if CHINA had INVADED and OCCUPIED Mexico and Canada and was making belligerent talk about US?
Would WE not feel the same as the Iranians?
Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei ordered a new branch to be split off from the air force this year to deal specifically with threats to the country's air space....

"Iran’s military uses war games as power play; Leadership links exercise to threat of Israeli attack" by Thomas Erdbrink, Washington Post | November 23, 2009
Yeah, USraeli war games are NEVER a "power play!" After a while you just get sick of this slop!
TEHRAN - The United States, Russia, and France have said they are running out of patience with Iran....
RUSSIA said that, WaPo? Really?

Oh, RIGHT, the Washington Post is the CIA 's newspaper!!!!
BRASILIA - The world must engage, not isolate, Iran in the push for Middle East peace and Iranian leaders should negotiate with Western nations for a “just and balanced’’ solution to concerns over its nuclear program, President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva of Brazil said yesterday.
Silva’s comments followed a three-hour private meeting with President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad - the first Iranian leader to visit Brazil since Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the late shah and US ally, toured Brazil in 1965. But Ahmadinejad made no promises and defiantly said....
Once you know the Zionist prism the AmeriKan MSM uses as a filter, this is neither surprising, worthy of comment, or noteworthy.
Seems like I'm saying that more and more about them on more and more topics!
The two leaders did not say whether they discussed the Iranian war games that started a day earlier, driving oil prices higher....
I LOVE the LYING, I really do!!!!
"higher prices for crude because of the weak dollar"
Yeah, and it is the IRANIAN'S FAULT!
