#2 Ooh, increase the pressure. How terrifying.

#3 It's curious, I think. Everyone knows this is a farce, just as it was obvious 2 yrs ago the EU3 "negotiations" were a farce. The UNSC bit will be a farce. Any and all sanctions will be a farce. In fact, almost all activities (I presume there must be an exception out there somewhere) that carry the label "diplomatic" are farcical.

Apply the technologies available, shed this ancient and pathetic approach to international relations. I know there is occasionally value in slowing things down, letting the "sides" simmer a bit, but this is absurd in the extreme. And everyone on the planet knows it.

With regard to Iran, it's clearly time to cut to the chase.

#4 The whole purpose for this offer is to stop Iran from further enrichment, yet Iran accelerates enrichment and states that they will not be rushed. We know what they are up to, therefore, Bush has no alternative but to squash them.

#6 Iran is trying to maintain control of the dialogue.
Like a really bad car salesman.
Nothing more.
It's an arab thing, swinging your d*ck around even as the bombs are whistling in on you.

#7 Is it better to bomb Iran back to the stone age during the summer, when it's too hot for them to be effective at anything during the day?

#8 Not curious at all. The world trusts that we will handle it, garnering hatred from those who are stymied, while they earn good will by having opposed us. It doesn't work that way with such people, of course, but they refuse to see the reality that conflicts from their "men of the world" self image.

#9 Iran accepts in part what Dubya will not accept in the whole, Iran does what Dubya will not tolerate, ....... etc. UNLESS SOMEONE BLINKS, NO DEAL/COMPROMISE IS LIKELY - buy that popcorn, Galz and Gentz.
