National security adviser puts Iran 'on notice'

[pcgeek11]

lol The election before, the Republicans were predicting Iran would get the bomb. Didn't happen. Why not? And heck, Romney and others basically said we needed a war years ago to stop it.

They are playing the US for fools. Have they stopped working on their quest for a Nuke or a delivery system?

Obviously not. But they got all of their Ransom Money for the Hostages.

No. An international court was about to order the United States to return those funds regardless of who was in power.

Like they could do anything. That would be like the UN ordering something. Isn't worth the paper it is written on.

Funny what people believe. So long as Iran conforms to the deal wrt nuclear materials the rest of it is just noise. They've done so eagerly. Maybe their whole nuclear program was a gambit, a willing sacrifice in pursuit of a larger strategy wrt commerce & diplomacy. Maybe it worked, too.

Exactly. They played Kerry and the US for fools and they were correct.

What does "on notice" mean?

Technical diplomatic terms like "You're on the shit list" or "we're unfriending you" or "Iraq was not enough, can I please have another? (kick to the nuts...)"

Maybe like a line in the sand. Hmmmm.

That's the dumbest thing I've heard in a while. That would be like people saying the US debt is no longer valid because we have a new president. What utter stupidity!

I think a government being overthrown is quite a long way from an election. Are you serious? Not even close.

Given that Iran's facilities have been inspected and they have complied by eliminating 80% of their centrifuges, I find it hard to fathom the conclusion you have drawn. The agreement does not prohibit missiles incapable of carrying nukes, so I don't see them rubbing anything in our face.

Are they incapable of delivering nukes? They are still on the road to a Nuke in my opinion.

It really doesn't matter what kind of rockets the Iranians have w/o nuclear weapons to go with 'em. They're the same sort of rockets used to launch satellites, anyway.

Still violates the fact they should not be testing them anyway, in violation of an agreement.

I'm trying to be bipartisan here.

They want ICBM's of course, they always have.
