TEHRAN – The second round of nuclear talks between Iran and Russia concerning a joint uranium enrichment project has been canceled, an informed source told the Mehr News Agency on Sunday.

Iran and Russia were scheduled to sit for a second round of negotiations on February 16 in Moscow regarding Moscow’s proposal to enrich Iran’s uranium on Russian soil.

In the first round of talks, held in early January, Tehran insisted on its legal right to enrichment on Iranian soil.

Those following the Iran nuclear crisis will note that this is a significant development, since the Russian proposal to enrich the uranium overseas where it could not be used for weapons development (support by President Bush) was the only real diplomatic option open, going forward.

"Jimmuh Carter to the rescue!"

That is a good idea. Let's send "Jimmuh" to suck up to the Mullahs ... and then launch.

Enough is enough.

We're being played for fools by lunatics, and the lunatics might be right.

We need to go in and destroy Natanz and the other facilities before they enrich enough uranium to build a bomb. They have everything else.

Talk will not save NYC from destruction, only American made and delivered heavy ordnance will.

The Russian plan would not stop Iran from building nukes any more than Clinton's reactors stopped North Korea from buidling theirs.

We need to take out the Iranian enrichment facilities ASAP.
