Iran Agrees to Full Nuclear Enrichment Freeze
This is an interesting development. From this
article at Reuters:
bq. Iran pledged on Sunday to suspend its uranium enrichment program to ease concerns that its nuclear program is aimed at developing weapons, but warned that the freeze was only temporary.
bq. Hassan Rohani, Iran's chief nuclear negotiator, said the suspension would remain in place as long as talks with the EU continued on a final resolution of the issue.
bq. "One hour ago we submitted a letter to the IAEA," Rohani told reporters after a meeting in Tehran with the ambassadors of Britain, Germany and France, which have been negotiating with Iran for several weeks on behalf of the European Union.
bq. Receipt of the letter by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the United Nations' nuclear watchdog, makes the scope and starting date of the suspension legally binding.
The takeover of Fallujah showed to them that we are serious about terrorism and that we may talk the talk a bit but but if that does not work (as it has failed to do with these fascists), we are also very willing to walk the walk.
I am reminded of this Cox and Forkum cartoon:
