#1 Iran steps back from the brink

Journalist steps further into delusion.

#2 There's always LUGGAGE-GATE > e.g. Norkies using planes to transport weapons + nuke equipment, when WMDS-techs absolutely positively have to be there over-nite, or at least while France is leading UNIFIL2.

#3 According to the source, Larijani did not rule out the possibility that Iran would cease uranium enrichment for a month or two.

That's it? That's the big breakthrough? LOL. EU doinkers.

Ironically, precisely at the time Larijani was disclosing this important information to Solana, Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told the Iranian press that returning to the past case of suspension was not "a reality".

LOL. Same old thing. Yeah, just ignore the friggin' gorilla in the room. The surreal stupidity of "diplomats" is amazing. Add in the institutional inability to do anything but babble, pander, and cower, and you get this epic farce.

#4 I'll repeat (big surprise!) what I said about Iran on 9-11:

Iran will do anything, say anything, sign any agreement, attend any talks necessary for whatever length of time if it stalls military intervention long enough for them to fabricate atomic weapons. Nothing else even remotely comes close on their agenda in terms of this priority.

They would stuff the 12^th imam straight back down his well if it delayed their nuclear aspirations even a single millisecond.

To think otherwise is the height of suicidal folly.

#7 A pile of dung. Ahmedinejad has one never changing goal: Nuclear weapons. The rest is just subterfuge.

#8 Just like Hitler "Stepped Back" by only taking the Sudatenland. "Peace in our time".

Bullshit.

#9 The Iranians just want to make sure they get a shipment of anti-aircraft batteries through to Syria and Hezbollah before they ramp up again.

#10 Note how Ahmanutjob's rhetoric follows the price of oil.
