News › IRAN ISSUES WARNING
Iran's president on Wednesday warned the West to expect a "bloody nose" over mounting pressure on Iran to halt its sensitive uranium enrichment activities, state television reported.
The five permanent members of the U.N. Security Council and Germany will meet on April 16 in Shanghai to discuss whether to sweeten incentives they had offered Iran in 2006 to curb its nuclear program.
In a televised address from the northeastern city of Mashhad, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad insisted Iran would never abandon its atomic work, which the West fears is a cover to build nuclear bombs. Iran says its work is to produce energy.
"The Iranian nation will bloody the enemy's (the West's) nose if they want to violate an iota of our rights (to nuclear technology)," he said without elaborating.
The Security Council has imposed three rounds of sanctions on Iran for refusing council's demand to suspend its uranium enrichment activities, which can be used to make fuel for power plants or atomic bombs, if refined much further.
Iran, which says it wants nuclear technology to generate electricity, has so far ruled out halting or limiting its nuclear work in exchange for trade and other incentives, and says it will only negotiate with the U.N. nuclear watchdog.
"We are standing firm and the West's misbehavior towards Iran, will encourage the nation to capture higher summits," the president said to chants of "Death to America" by the crowd.
"The nation will slap you in the mouth."
Accelerating activity that could give Tehran the means to make atom bombs in the future if it wants to, Iran said on Tuesday it had begun installing 6,000 new centrifuges at its Natanz uranium enrichment plant and said it had tested a "new generation" of centrifuges.
Iran, the world's fourth largest oil exporter, launched 3,000 centrifuges, a basis for industrial scale enrichment, in Natanz. But they are a 1970s-vintage design, prone to breakdown.
"ERA OF OPPRESSION"
Washington said Tehran's move showed its intention to ignore Security Council demands to halt sensitive nuclear work and France suggested major powers may have to toughen sanctions on the Islamic Republic.
U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said incentives offered to Iran in 2006 if it halted uranium enrichment, including civil nuclear cooperation, had been "very generous".
But Russia, which is building Iran's first nuclear power plant, said "new positive proposals" should be put to Iran.
The United States has not ruled out military action to stop Iran's nuclear activities and Israel has repeatedly urged the international community to stop Tehran's atomic work.
Ahmadinejad said imposing sanctions on Iran would have no results for the West.
"It will not weaken our nation's will ... the era of oppression is finished," Ahmadinejad said.

So, in view of past history, the events of today, statements from Iran, and present facts that anyone with two brain-cells to rub together has to acknowledge, the question is...

| What group of idiots actually believes that further payoffs to Iran will do anything except enrich the Iranian Treasury and deplete the treasuries of the '5', mainly the Treasury of the U.S.A. ? |
Iranian income depends mainly on the Iranian oil reserves, and there will always be a customer for their black gold.
As for the West's impression that Iran's banks of enrichment centrifuges is "prone to breakdown", that bold statement is an excellent example of the violation of Rule Number One:

To add fuel to my previous opinion;
Since everything on this planet that Iran wants/needs is manufactured in China, (go ahead, just try to find something not made in China) who in their right mind can believe Iran really gives a rats arse about anyone else? China can block any significant "sanctions" against Iran, participate under the table in any ridiculous payola scheme supposedly designed to thwart Iranian nuclear development, and Iran goes on with business as usual. China can increase their imports of Iranian petro-products from eleven percent to whatever Iran can supply, and Iran could care less about any other global customers. Such a change between China and Iran would take about 2-1/2 minutes of phone time between China and Iran.

| ...However, China — which relies on Iran for energy supplies — maintains that now isn't the right time to discuss such measures and that the door to negotiations with Tehran remains open. As a permanent member of the Security Council, along with the U.S., Russia, Britain and France, China is in a position to veto any new measures.... ...China depends on oil- and gas-rich Iran for 11 percent of its energy needs and last year became Tehran's biggest trading partner, according to Iranian figures. Trade volume reached at least $36.5 billion, the Iran-China Chamber of Commerce reported, with Iran mainly importing consumer goods and machinery from China and exporting oil, gas, and petrochemicals. |

REMEMBER 9-11
"Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say, 'What should be the reward of such sacrifices?' ... If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animating contest of freedom...crouch down and lick the hands, which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!"
Samuel Adams
9-11 Never Forget
