Iran rules out nuclear halt despite fresh incentives
TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran said on Monday it would not consider any incentives offered by world powers that violated its right to nuclear technology, ruling out a precondition to halt atomic work the West believes is aimed at making bombs…
“Those incentives that violate the Iranian nation’s right in any form will not be reviewed by the Islamic state,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini told a news conference.
France, one of the six powers, said the offer was generous and should not be rejected out of hand.
“They are refusing a text which is extremely generous in my opinion, so I find it a bit premature that they are refusing it without having seen it,” French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner told reporters.
He said world power representatives would travel to Tehran “in the coming days” to submit the offer…
“Regarding the incentives package … we believe the path adopted in the past should not be continued,” Hosseini said. “Talks should be held based on respecting nations’ rights.” …
At the Geneva meeting, U.S. chief delegate Christopher Ford said the offer was Iran’s “best chance” to avoid isolation.
“It is tragic that (Iran’s) government has remained so set on a contrary course of deceit, lawbreaking and confrontation unbefitting to the inheritors of such a proud, ancient culture.” …
Iran has also discussed with Russia its own package of proposals, which it says would open the way for talks to resolve the nuclear row and other issues. It has not disclosed details…
What a shock. Why would Iran be so hell-bent to keep their nuclear program secret?
But perhaps begging them some more will help.
WWOD?
(What would Obama do?)

Iran will never voluntarily abandon their quest for nuclear weapons. The UN can try all the bribery, diplomacy and sternly worded edicts they want but these mooselimb asshats will not capitulate.
Ahmamaddinnerjacket is seriously deluded if he thinks Israel, or the US for that matter, will sit idly by letting them develop a nuke. He’s trying to drag this out right now to see who will occupy the White House come 2009.
Call me a war monger but I’m hoping the US and Israel take out Iran’s nuke facilities before Bush leaves office. Heaven help us if nothing is done about Iran and he who can’t be named takes office, (shudder-shudder and perish the thought).

Gila, I agree.
Dinnerjacket wants to blow Israel off the map, cause his religion is so peaceful.

And let’s see. Who is the genius to whom we owe this mess? The name Carter comes to mind. Now we’re poised to spend four more years with a Carter-wanna-be in the WH. I’m becoming ill.

With that set of teeth, I don’t know if to enter him in the derby, send him to a glue factory or carve a set of keys for a piano.
I am sure he needs to eat daisies.
Kind of a surprise the dinner jacket did not take the incentives though and then flip everyone off and keep on his present course.

Yep, we can thank Jimmah for this mess. What was that song McCain was singing one time? (to the tune of Beach Boy song, “Barbara Ann”) “Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb bomb Iran…..”
Oh, I gotta go… I hear my asparagus screaming… :-)

B. Hussien Obamessiah’s foreign policy will likely mimic Jimmah’s reign of indecisions and horrific judgements. The man was a complete failure as POTUS and come to think of it, he hasn’t been much better since leaving office.
Libtards seem to think that evil can be convinced not to do evil, if that makes any sense to my fellow posters. History has shown us, countless times, that appeasement never works when confronting evil regimes or individuals.

” appeasement never works when confronting evil regimes or individuals.”
Oh it works, Just for the wrong reasons and for the wrong side.
The enemy is emboldened when they see a weak mark, They just love it when spineless twerps like our current crop of officials offer them concessions.
Half wits like Carter, Obama and Clinton and their friends in the UN keep trying to pay terrorists off.
If we just give them enough they will be our friends, seems to be their mindset.
They just have never gotten past the point of understanding that you either bust the bully in the mouth when he tries to take your lunch money, or give it to him every week for the rest of your life.
Gila, we are on the same page, and I think you know that.
But I really wanna bust a few appeasement retards in the mouth!

I think Obama would say:
Please stop building nuclear bombs, we will send you some ready built ones and help you point them at the USA!
My wife is 100%% for my err (her) decision.
