Diplomats: Iran Wanted Nuke Parts
From Fox News:
Iran told a black market supplier it was interested in "tens of thousands" of parts for its covert nuclear program, diplomats said Thursday, as the U.N. atomic watchdog prepared to rebuke Tehran for hindering an agency probe of its activities.
The diplomats, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity, said the revelation about Iran's offer was made at a closed-door meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
An IAEA (search) report leaked last week mentioned that Iran had acknowledged inquiring about 4,000 magnets needed for uranium enrichment equipment with a European black-market supplier and had dangled the possibility of buying a "higher number" of such markets.

I don't put much faith in "anonymous" sources, but this fits Iran's modus operandi.Mark's Remarks
But, let's do like the liberals, and take Iran directly at their "word." Do that, and we will end up with nuke terror in 10 years. This is why it is imperative to re-elect George W. Bush, someone who will confront these people in the style of Reagan, not with blustery bs and false trust, but with straight talk and resolute action.
