Iran once again has refuted optimistic predictions that meaningful progress would be made on the core issues at stake in the on-again, off-again nuclear negotiations. In two days of talks in Baghdad, Tehran rejected the Western proposal for resolving the nuclear impasse and agreed only to continue the talks in Moscow on June 18–19.
After raising expectations earlier this week by reaching an “agreement in principle” with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to increase cooperation with investigators monitoring Iran’s suspect nuclear activities, Iran once again executed its “slip and slide” strategy. An “agreement in principle” means little to a regime that has no principles except those that keep it firmly in power.
The Associated Press issued a bombshell account of an IAEA report revealing that Iran has escalated the level of uranium enrichment to 27 percent, significantly above the 20 percent level that it claims to need for its research reactor.
This is one more confirmation, if any was needed, that Tehran is pushing full speed ahead on its nuclear weapons program while paying lip service to the charade of diplomatic negotiations.

I believe Israel has the courage and strength to face Iran. The question is, does our government?
I agree with but bear in mind that right now Israel is about the only clear thinking Nation on the planet and having said that, its president will not, at least unless its the last resort, evoke nuclear war! God bless him for that.!
In this little Terhan bugs mind Obama is Monte Hall and he (the bug) aint making no deals. He knows beyond any doubt that this Odildo mut is as about as spineless as ever seen. He also knows that if he stands his ground, the Odildo one will cave to whatever he demands or says because of that spinelessness. This insane idiotic fools is the laughing stock of the known universe and he has intentionally drug America down with him. Our saving grace is to get a decent conservative in the Oval office and this little Terhan bug will put tail between legs and hide!
We all know what Iran is doing. But more important, so does Obama. Yet he does nothing to stop them. But he does everything (including threats if they act before the November elections) he can do to stop Isreal from doing what they must do to protect their nation.
Just how many times does Iran have to delay, divert, and destroy the 'talks' before the US determines that this is just a delaying tactic? Give Me A Break! They have many times declared their goal – Eradicate Israel and the Jews.
