| Iran threatens to resume uranium enrichment program |
| 2004-03-07 |
| Iran has threatened to resume uranium enrichment and revise its agreement to cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) if the nuclear dispute is not resolved in line with last Octoberâs agreement, the Mehr news service reported on Sunday. âIran will not wait forever to restore its legitimate national right to pursue peaceful nuclear activities,â an unnamed member of the Iranian delegation at the IAEA headquarters in Vienna told Mehr. âWe would not only revise cooperation but also keep the option open to restart uranium enrichment if the IAEA and the Europeans did not fulfill their commitments in line with the October declaration and still continued their double-standard policies toward Iran,â the diplomat added. According to Mehr, continuing accusations against Iran, despite its cooperation with IAEA inspectors, has irked the Iranian delegation, which has accused the United Nations nuclear agency of dealing with Iran in an âillogical mannerâ. |

| #3 The Black Turbans have been reading Kimmy's script. Ramp up the rhetoric and next it will be to threaten a sea of fire. If they have nuke capability and the delivery system ready to go, they have just signed their death warrant, and those of a whole bunch of Iranians. Well, IAEA, wacha gonna do? Is the US and/or Israel going to have to go do the dirty work that you are unwilling to do? |

| #2 I'd guess "threatens" really means they not only already have, but prolly never missed a beat, heh. Timing, I'm sure, is the pivot point. Pre-General Election seems to be politically unacceptable - as long as they haven't reached their goal: deliverable nuke capable of reaching Israel. If they achieve it beforehand, then what's an election compared to preserving the existence of a truly modern democratic society? As for who does the deed, I don't care as long as they ace the Mad Mullahs (decapitation style) at the same time! |

| #1 I just wonder who'll take out these facilities first: Us or the Israelis. The black turbans have a deathwish, and I'd hate to see them disappointed |
