#2 Mrs. Davis, they grew nothing. If this even makes it to the SC, the Russians and Chinese will never go for sanctions.
Besides, its the UN we're talking about here, its not like anyone will actually do anything, it is home of the 3 C's - criminal, corrupt, cowardly.

#3 I have no doubt the UN Security Council will be as effective in dealing with Iran as they were with Saddam.

#4 "Refer Iran to U.N."

For what? Tea and crumpets and a jolly slap on the back?

Yeah, like that'll help. :-(

I've got a better idea: Let's "refer" the U.N. to Iran. As in move their sorry asses to Tehran. At least, that way they'll be right there to receive their bribe payments while ~~helping~~ waiting for Iran to complete their nukes.

#7 U.S. thanks India for its support in IAEA vote on Iran

The United States on Saturday hailed a resolution passed by the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog that required Iran to be referred to the U.N. Security Council over its nuclear plans and thanked India for backing Washington's bid to isolate Tehran.

"This is a significant step forward in the international effort to isolate Iran and a setback for Iran's nuclear strategy," said U.S. Undersecretary of State Nicholas Burns in a conference call with reporters.

Earlier on Saturday, the International Atomic Energy Agency's board in Vienna passed a resolution requiring Iran to be reported to the U.N. Security Council at an unspecified date over a failure to convince the agency its nuclear program was entirely peaceful.
