IAEA report should pave way for tighter Iran sanctions
It is becoming painfully obvious that Iranian government is flat out in your face lying with regard to their nuclear weapon proliferation intentions. The UN can try more sanctions but I think it is only a matter of time before the sanctions are pushed aside for more drastic measures i.e bombing their nuclear facilities and military installations back to the Stone Age.
I think the bombing should be a joint effort with the US, Europe, Russia and China this would send a strong clear message to any country that it will not be tolerated and there is no one to hide behind if you try.
The other benefit would be it would lesson even remove the need for a missile defense system which should make Russia happy.
The latest United Nations report on Iran's nuclear program should pave the way for passage next week of a new UN Security Council resolution tightening sanctions against Tehran, U.S. ambassador to the UN Zalmay Khalilzad said Friday.
The report released Friday by the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed that Iran has continued to enrich uranium in defiance of repeated UN Security Council resolutions demanding that it suspend the uranium centrifuge program, which could produce both civilian nuclear fuel and the material for a nuclear bomb.
"The IAEA report does give us very important points to make," Khalilzad said. "They [Iran] did not come clean."
The report states that Iran has carried out a series of experiments associated with the production of nuclear weapons, high velocity explosives, and uranium enrichment. Teheran has also reportedly carried out simulations of warhead detonations and tests involving Polonium 210, a material used to develop nuclear weapons.
