#3 Whata swell idea!

It's this kind of forward thinking makes me want to reconsider my negative attitude towards the UN.

#4 Here's the article:

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged Iran on Tuesday to cooperate fully with the UN nuclear agency and the UN Security Council to settle the dispute over its nuclear program, saying the United Nations wants a peaceful solution.

So far so good. Iran needs to step up to the plate.

Ban was responding to a question about French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner's comments Sunday that the world community must be prepared for "the worst" - the possibility of war - if the nuclear standoff continues.

Still good. If you aren't part of the axis of evil.

"I have stated publicly many times my position and United Nations' position on Iranian nuclear issues," he said. "As a matter of principle, all the pending issues ... should be resolved through dialogue in a peaceful manner. (Those are) very, very important principles which (the) United Nations is seeking."

Well, that's what they are there for.

But sometimes people don't play nice, and the guns have to come out. I'm pleased to see that Ban did not speak against that possibility.
