Iran was given a fortnight to agree to freeze its uranium enrichment programme yesterday or face further international isolation.
After a day of inconclusive talks in Geneva, a six-nation negotiating team warned the Iranian delegation that it had run out of patience and demanded a 'yes or no' answer to a proposal it put forward five weeks ago.

A Look at Iran
http://www.truthusa.com/IRAN.html
SCARY!
Oil back to $150 pronto.
I knew it was too good to be true.
Today was the turning point for war. This is why the U.S. met with Iran. The green light was given today to bring this to an end. That happened when Iran said no.
These guys are TOUGH! /s
Two weeks ... and then what exactly?
Nothing. Imanutjob has learned from the past experience with Saddam in Iraq, he knows he can keep this up for at least another year or longer.
July 29th is the Lailat al Miraj. The festival celebrates the Prophet Muhammad’s journey from Mecca to Jerusalem in a single night. From Jerusalem he ascended into heaven, where he met the earlier prophets, and eventually God. Two years ago, intelligence officials worried that Iran might launch a nuclear attack on Israel. It is a week from Tuesday.
I will hold my breathe till I turn blue—THAT WILL REALLY SHOW YOU!!!!
“Two weeks ... and then what exactly?”
Nothing.
“Imanutjob has learned from the past experience with Saddam in Iraq, he knows he can keep this up for at least another year or longer.”
Exactly. And if — God forbid — Obambi wins the presidency, Iran will be home free, and everyone knows it.
$5.50 a gallon gas here we come!

In the next few days the European Union is due to approve new financial sanctions aimed at Tehran’s banking system. Those are likely to be followed by a fresh round of Security Council talks in September on stepping up international sanctions, although both Russia and China oppose radical measures.
The US and Britain have also raised the possibility of pursuing an embargo of Iran’s oil industry, including a block on imports of petrol and diesel. And the breakdown of talks is likely to strengthen the urgings of hawks in Israel for pre-emptive military action to halt Iran’s nuclear programme.
War will happen. The question is whether or not Lebanon, Syria, and other countries stay out of it. Saudi Arabia will remain neutral and secretly root that Iran is brought to their knees. Egypt will condemn the actions of Israel but secretly hope for the success of the mission. Syria is the wild card.
War will come soon. Best we just get it over with.
Until the next 
warning.
And if you don’t we will taunt you yet again!

This is why the U.S. met with Iran.
Yes. It has nothing to do with obama's Vast Diplomatic Insights.
The green light was given today to bring this to an end.
Hold on to your seats, it's going to be a bumpy ride.
That happened when Iran said no.
Obviously, Iran learned nothing from the Gulf War, the Afghanistan War, and the Iraq War.
To borrow from The Godfather, "today is the Day when I deal with my enemies ~GWB
"Another Western source..."
Piffle...

Let us hope that someone with some Cajones gets this taken care of pronto!
bttt
I start with the Keystone Kops, but they look downright rocket surgeony compared to the negotiators. The three stooges look downright brainy and ballsy in comparison. I'm at a loss.
The Iranians have been playing these "negotiators" for fools for about 30 years now on one issue or another and they keep 2-weeking the West to death.
These "negotiators" don't seem to understand that while they're being played for fools, Iran plods along day by day on their work and one day, the "negotiators" are going to wake up to an Iranian fait accompli announcing their first nuclear test (with plenty of help from China, Pak, NK) and then what are these negotiators going to do?
It wasn't enough that Larinjani, the Iranian negotiator went on European TV laughing at this process, literally LAUGHING at these "negotiators" and their antics and a month later, the "negotiators" went back to the table and sat down talking with the Iranians like nothing had happened.
The only thing that these "negotiators" are "negotiating" is graves for a whole lot of infidels when the Islamic Republic finaly gets the bomb. RESTRAINT for infidels from the Mad Mullahs?????? Yeah, right!
These "negotiators" apparently have little to no idea of what a dangerous game they're playing. Maybe they do ... and just don't care.
I agree 100% with your post but would throw Russia into the mix of wild cards. They've been rattling some military sabers recently and an attack by Russia (Biblical nation of Gog) would fall right in line with end times prophesy. So would an attack by Syria whose capital city of Damascus suffers utter destruction in end times Biblical prophesy. The Isaiah 17 is the chapter, IIRC. Such prophesy could be fulfilled in a retaliatory strike by Israel in the form of a nuke strike against Damascus.
Then they get put on "double secret probation".
Which is it? End the programme or just maintain the status quo?
Uh-oh. Is the recent peace and calm we've had here about to end?
Then the US will offer Iran a bribe at taxpayers’ expense.
>>>>>The festival celebrates the Prophet Muhammad’s journey from Mecca to Jerusalem in a single night. From Jerusalem he ascended into heaven, where he met the earlier prophets,<<<<<
If nothing else, the West should be protecting the historic sites of our civilization and Christendom from desecration by Muslims.
The last time they got their hands on the Christian Church Of The Nativity in Jerusalem, they turned it into an outhouse and basically trashed as much as they could.
IMO anything Mighty Mo is alleged to have done in Jerusalem is just one more ahistoric hallucination springing from his syphillis infections.
Yes, but how did that work out for Saddam?
Saddam who?
Not well, but Iran is running the clock out so he can finish his proven nuclear ambitions, Saddam Hussein was stalling because he didn’t want to be exposed to be weaker than his rhetoric even though he had the same ambitions.
Time is of the essence in the case of Iran.

I'm sure they're shaking in their boots. That happens when you're hysterically laughing.
... Or we shall Taunt You Again!!! (sniff!)
The 6 nations are US, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China. Iran knowns it is not hard to play all the players against each other. China and Russia will try to obstruct and delay as much as possible. France and Germany don’t have the backbone to be tough. The US and Britain are busy in Iraq and Afghanistan. The only wildcard is Israel, which isn’t even at the talks.
If the EU really wants to put presure on Iran then Germany and France should start mobilizing their militaries for deployment to the Middle East. They should lead a EU force to scare the crap out of Iran.
I keep saying the same thing. Russia will not sit idly by while Iran is attacked!
However, no one seems to be listening.
Russia is the key here. If you really want to know our intentions towards Iran then watch Russia.
When she starts putting her troops on alert and moving them south, while tightening her borders you will know we are moving against Iran.
“When she starts putting her troops on alert and moving them south, while tightening her borders you will know we are moving against Iran.”
There should be no US move against Iran. Israel has plenty of her own resources for dealing with them...permanently.
If this meeting was what it appears to be...i expect the next step is Sanctions, followed by startegic blaockaides and internal operations leading up to an Iranian offensive move that kicks off the mother of all battles...post november.
Magical Michief and Deo, please take the time to read the above links and pass it on to others. The Soldiers of Chosen Co. deserve to get their story out for the world to know what happened July 13, 2008. That was the day when Al Qaeda/Taliban learned no matter where, no matter how outnumbered, Americans will never never give in, will never never give up. (On that day between 200-500 Al Qaeda/Taliban attacked a small FOB consisting of 45 Airborne Soldiers of the 173rd Airborne and 25 ANA. We lost 9 wonderful Soldiers and suffered 15 wounded.) Below is a snippet of the first hand account.
“Two hours after the first shots were fired, Stafford made his way — with help — to the medevac helicopter that arrived.
“It was some of the bravest stuff I’ve ever seen in my life, and I will never see it again because those guys,” Stafford said, then paused. “Normal humans wouldn’t do that. You’re not supposed to do that — getting up and firing back when everything around you is popping and whizzing and trees, branches coming down and sandbags exploding and RPGs coming in over your head … It was a fistfight then, and those guys held ’ em off.”
Stafford offered a guess as to why his fellow soldiers fought so hard.
“Just hardcoreness I guess,” he said. “Just guys kicking ass, basically. Just making sure that we look scary enough that you don’t want to come in and try to get us.”
God Bless each and every one of our Soldiers! For those we lost RIP.
Now, The Magical Mischief and Deo, what exactly were you saying about the price of gas (rhetorical question)? Iran is now THE HUB of terrorist activity in the world. They are about to go nuclear. And you are worried about the price of gas? Just wait until Iran tests its first nuclear device. Then what?
Every American should be demanding from their Congressman/Senators the right to use our own Natural Resources so that we, the people, are not beholden to outside forces during dark times. It is a shame that we here at home do not have the will to challenge our own government for our own resources. Instead we just sit around whine about the price of gas while good men are dying for us in far off lands. We should be ashamed.
Up goes oil on Monday...
And the largest ground campaign since 1991 and possibly World War II.
I don't think so. We need to test our weapons and systems against what is there and have some target practice. And the F-22 needs some real combat testing :)
We all still need today’s equivalent to the late former General George S. Patton, just like we all also still need today’s equivalent to the late former President Ronald Reagan! Sadly, I truly don’t see anybody out there that meets these requirements.
What a joke.
