#1 if we allow the country to close in, it will also mean that IAEA inspectors will not know what is happening' in Iran

Reality:

"We'd rather know they are building a nuke, than try to stop them."

Its pretyt obvious - why do they say such amazingly stupid things? Don't they realize that knwoing about the nukes doenst mean anything if they buidl the damendthings? They are going to USE it when they build it.

Its like telling a rapist to show you his "gun" before he rapes you instead of shooting him to stop him.

Well worth repeating. Isn't that the theme of the DNC?

#4 Everybody seems to get away with giving the EU bitchslaps and pimp kicks.

It seems that the only country that ever tries to truly accommodate those sheep is the US.

Which begs the question: Why?

#6 French position - as long as they only plan to use nuclear power to either make electricity or nuke Israel, we're OK with it.

#7 Iran said Sunday it was 'not scared' of being hauled before the UN Security Council

Good, so let's bomb the shit outta them until they're scared. Then we'll talk.

#8 Of course they surrender. The French rulers can look at the demographic figures and plainly see the native French will be the minority. They just hope to keep their heads long enough to die of old age. Screw their children.

The question is why anyone in the west still considers France an ally.

#9 When someone decides to make themselves irrelevant we should ignore their drivel. The French leadership are working hard at becomming irrelevant. Bypass them and lets get on with removing Iran's nuclear capability.
