do you at least understand the parallel i'm illustrating for you and your question as to "why is it the nuclear armed countries get to dictate to the rest of the world"?

sorry but thats bullshit. we talk to the Norks. WE HAVEN"T STOPPED TALKING TO THEM for 15 years! do you fucking people have the attention span of ameobas?

as far as Iran is concerned there really is nothing more or different the US could articulate that the whole of Europe hasn't done already. and if you think otherwise that we can tell what Iran can and can't do regarding the Nuclear NPT then you really don't understand the mullah's and their intentions.

i try it out.

^^ That "Showdown with Iran" is such propaganda bullshit. So one sided with Israel so it's full of shit.

OK, should i have said "no NICE talkies"? all i do know is that the US' efforts failed pretty miserably with george at the helm, and the sabre-rattling and the "axis of evil" stuff hardly did the world any favours.

well, i think the US had a pretty good opportunity to make inroads with iran after 911, and instead went with the rhetoric of showdown. but maybe that's my naivete as you so eloquently put it

well, given the nature of your thoroughly one-eyed opinions when it comes to the middle east, im not surprised to hear more nonsense from you. its hardly "propaganda", but a look from the POV of the united states of america.

maybe you'd prefer something from the thoroughly trustworthy and unbiased iranian state-run media?

So you'r saying having a gun justifies the right to dictate to others my own agenda? That's simply wrong. Possessing power does not inherently justify the use of that power for one's own interests.

no, not at all. what i'm saying is that there are rules/laws and standards of character to be considered before letting someone posses firearms. nothing too different going on here.

as far as Iran is concerned they have repeatedly and purposefully failed to meet such criteria.

is there any evidence to suggest that iran has been enriching uranium to weapons-grade standards?

the production date circa 2003 makes this one completely irrelevant not only in terms of what was accomplished in the following 5 years of the previous US administration but also where to go now in terms of the present US administration.
