ehran, Iran, Jan. 09 – Iran is resuming suspended nuclear activities at its massive uranium enrichment facility in Natanz, the government spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham said on Monday.

Talking to reporters at a press conference in Tehran, Elham said, “As has been announced, nuclear research will begin today, and there is no legal obstacles barring this research”.

“The suspension of our nuclear activities was voluntary and we have notified the IAEA of our intention to start it”, Elham added.

The IAEA, the European Union and the United States had called on Iran to refrain from resuming suspended activities at Natanz, which is being seen as a dangerous escalation of the current crisis over Iran’s nuclear program.

Israel should bomb everything that they and we suspect could possibly be used for nuclear development in Iran (we could loan Israel some nice bombs that we have been developing). Then place the blame on Sharon. Citing that he wasn't feeling well when he place the order, and the Israeli group that did the strike had been out of touch with the media as of late.

Blame? What blame? Credit more like. And since it would be creditable, why not do it ourselves?

I am sadly inclined to agree, but whose fault is that?
