VIENNA, Austria (AP) - A 35-nation meeting of the U.N. atomic watchdog agency on Saturday demanded that Iran suspend all aspects of uranium enrichment, setting an indirect November deadline for Tehran to heed its conditions.
A resolution approved by the International Atomic Energy Agency's board of governors said it "considers it necessary" that Iran freeze all uranium enrichment and related programs.
It also said it "strongly urges" Iran to meet all demands by the agency in its investigation of the country's nearly two decades of clandestine nuclear activity, including unrestricted access to sites, information and personnel that can shed light on still unanswered questions on whether Tehran was interested in the atom for nuclear weapons.
Suggesting that the Islamic Republic could answer to the U.N. Security Council should it defy the demands, the resolution said the next board meeting in November "will decide whether or not further steps are appropriate" in ensuring Iran complies.
Yep, the UN is really made now.
Wonder when Kofi and Son will start the "Enriched Uranium For Food" program.
Uh-oh. If Iran doesn't shape up, the UN might have to pass a R-E-S-O-L-U-T-I-O-N!
That'll learn 'em.
It will be a long road to hell......the UN still wasn't done with Iraq after 10 years of resolutions and threats. The UN is impotent.
Oh boy, weapons inspectors. Hans, Hans, where are you?
Hey, the UN has its hands full solving the Islamist genocide in Darfur! Give 'em a break!
I am continually amazed, flabbergasted and stunned at the U.N. making demands on anyone. They have no method of meaningful enforcement except the USA. And of all countries of which to demand anything, IRAN who has a standing armed force greater than all of the U.N. nations (without the USA) put together!
Iran's response to the UN:
Your mouth keeps moving but all I hear is BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.
I will enlist ... again. This time as a sniper in the US Marine Corps.
What is an "indirect deadline?"
Telegram from Jessica Simpson....
"(hands on hips); Kofi you're SOooo irrevalent.... stop..."
"It also said it "strongly urges" Iran to meet all demands by the agency in its investigation..."
France is getting mad, so you better do what we say................(or else).
Mr. Magoo on the Red Phone...
What a Joke The UN Demands ..The only thing that will work is Bombing.
November deadline, eh? The UN is hopeless, but Bush could use this if he is reelected. He can't do anything until then, anyway.
This is just setting the stage for the next act or two..
Imagine if Kerry was calling the shots? egad! lol
U.N. demands Iran suspend uranium enrichment
Whew! I feel so much safer now.
Let's see... Is this the 20th time the UN has demanded that they stop uranium enrichment or the 21st?
A UN Resolution?! ---ROFLMAO ;^D
