| Iran rejects UN nuclear demands |
| 2004-09-19 |
| The mullahs have to go Iran has said it will not agree to halt uranium enrichment, despite the UN nuclear watchdog's call for a suspension of all such activities. "Iran will not accept any obligation regarding the suspension of uranium enrichment," chief nuclear negotiator Hassan Rohani said. "No international body can force Iran to do so," he added. (Now that was a dumb statement begging for a little demonstration, and sounds sooooo Saddam) Uranium enrichment can be used to make nuclear weapons, but Iran says its programme is for peaceful purposes. |

| #11 Uranium enrichment can be used to make nuclear weapons, but Iran says its programme is for peaceful purposes. The mullahs should phrase it in nice, clear terms, such as: "We want to peacefully develop an atomic bomb." |

| #9 Just desserts? I vote for chocolate mousse with raspberry sauce and a little unsweetened whipped cream. Failing that, a nice light lime sorbet with macaroons to clear the palate. ;-D |

| #8 Alas, JR, Carter was the president thingy back then. And we can all remember how that faux pas turned out... An excursion into the heart of darkness: self-defeatism. There's another thingy of the same calibre and quality running about the "swing states" blathering incoherent contradictions and apologies right now. He's so confused about reality that wants to join the E3. Will history repeat itself and serve up another total fool and apologist? Another self-defeatist who threatens his own? We shall see, we shall see - soon. Vote. Beat everyone you know over the head to vote, too. Vote with your wallet in the Senate campaigns, as OS so sagely pointed out a week or so ago. Make this election count, big-time, toward the end of Mullahcracy as a form of My $0.02. |

| #7 JR, no need to waste perfectly good trotters and other pig parts. JUST KILL THE MULLAHS AND ALL THEIR NUCLEAR SCIENTISTS. That is all we need to do, the rest is gratuitous and unnecessary. Like I've said elsewhere, we need to specifically target all air raid shelters during our bombing runs over the Iranian nuclear weapons sites. The strikes should be specially timed to coordinate with periods of maximum occupation and activity by staff and workers. When we are finished with them, Iran should be incapable of putting together any weapon more complicated than a hammer. |

| #6 Alright, Zenster. I am ready to go and help the mullahs find their just desserts. Let's get it over with, already. We should have gotten started on this 24 years ago and pounded the capitol flat with B-52's and followed that up with the least disciplined troops we've got going in and draping pig guts over every mullah we find. How about shoving a pig's foot in the mouth of every mullah, replacing their blood with warm lard and burying them wrapped in uncured pigskins. And then we shoot them . . . once they have had a chance to realize they are being buried in pig. But maybe I am being to kind and thoughtful of their feelings . . . I will have to go and get creative about this . . . |

| #5 In light of Iran's overall track record, I think it's far better that they continue on this course of defiant and belligerant conduct. The net result will be them getting the crap bombed out of their nuclear program and, quite possibly, regime change. All of these are very good things. Were the Iranian mullahs collectively capable of rubbing two brain cells together, they would appease the IAEA and merely continue a clandestine nuclear weapons program on the side. Such dissembling would utterly cripple any of the UN's usually toothless enforcement (see Darfur) and permit the Iranians to achieve their cloven-footed ends. Instead, they continue to place their head in the noose of regional conflict. It's like there's some sort of congenital disposition towards rapacity that they neither can supress nor outgrow. All well and fine then, the bombing begins in fifteen While we can expect no such thing from the blind-as-a-cave-fish Europeans, a lot of the remaining world is going to heave a sigh of relief once the mullahs have received their just desserts. |

| #4 Oddly, the "IAEA Tough Guy" is a survivor and the "Iranian counterpart" is a nuclear missile target. Apparently natural selection sometimes favors the impotent bureaucrat. |

| #3 Here we see the IAEA Tough Guy literally dripping with confidence and competence -- and his smirking Iranian counterpart. Wow, I feel better, don't you? |

| #2 And here's the take from that paragon of truth and reliability, CBS: UN Agency Gets Tough on Iran Nukes Lol! |

| #1 "No international body can force Iran to do so." Of course not, they were designed to be impotent. But a couple of heavily armed Nation States should be able to handle the job in a few short minutes. |
