Iran will step up its uranium enrichment program by sharply increasing the number of centrifuges used to make nuclear fuel, a senior official said Wednesday, in direct defiance of Western demands.

The statement by Iran’s nuclear chief, Fereidoun Abbasi, is likely to escalate tensions. The West suspects Iran’s nuclear program could be headed toward weapons production and has imposed punishing sanctions to try to persuade Tehran to stop enrichment.

I recall a news flash just before the election announcing that Iran was suspending its nuclear program!

I feel sorry for the Iranians.

They have been begging to be attacked for the last 5 or 6 years maybe longer , and no one will attack them.

They miss Saddam Hussein killing them off and now look for someone else to do the job.

How long with they have to beg for Armageddon before they get it.

Somebody Please: Blow these animals up so they can be happy.

Something tells me that they won’t tell us. Just like how the North Koreans didn’t tell us when they were going to do it, and we were taken by surprise. Just like how the Russians didn’t tell us . . .
