Further proof that Iran has been toying with negotiators comes from the Telegraph:In a speech to a closed meeting of leading Islamic clerics and academics, Hassan Rowhani, who headed talks with the so-called EU3 until last year, revealed how Teheran played for time and tried to dupe the West after its secret nuclear programme was uncovered by the Iranian opposition in 2002.The Islamofascist regime in Iran has been lying about their capabilities and intent. Rather than dismiss their crazy president, we should actually listen to what he's been saying and then take appropriate action. This is not a government that should be trusted.
Iran has completed uranium enrichment equipment at Isfahan
He boasted that while talks were taking place in Teheran, Iran was able to complete the installation of equipment for conversion of yellowcake - a key stage in the nuclear fuel process - at its Isfahan plant but at the same time convince European diplomats that nothing was afoot.
"From the outset, the Americans kept telling the Europeans, 'The Iranians are lying and deceiving you and they have not told you everything.' The Europeans used to respond, 'We trust them'," he said.
A more liberal form of government is not just going to spring up in Iran. It will have to be encouraged. That will take time and resources that I'm not entirely sure we have available to us at the moment. But as a matter of importance to the war on terror, Iran must be dealt with at the right time.
They know that. Why don't we? Or do we?
Mark's Remarks
No, no. Let's wait 12 years and 17 resolutions before we take it seriously. I mean, they haven't been linked to 9/11. They haven't said they would bomb us (at least not loud enough for the MSM to catch on, but then again, when do they ever?) And really, who cares if they seek to destroy Israel, because after all, that is a country of Zionists who are terrorists themselves, right?
WHOOPS! Sorry, folks, was channelling the DNC's talking points on Iraq for a minute there, my bad. The similarities, though, are enormous. A regime that has lied to inspectors, that has thumbed its nose to the world. A regime that has trained and supplied terrorists. I wonder if the Dems will wait to get on board before or after they kill more Americans?
