VIENNA, Austria -- The U.N. atomic watchdog agency said Monday that Iran appears determined to expand its uranium enrichment program — a key international concern because of fears it could use the activity to make nuclear weapons.

Well you can bet your ass the US isn't going to intervene militarily. If anyone does, its going to be the Israeli's, and it will be at the last minute, or when its already too late. Sorry boys, but we don't have the stomach for another war.

I disagree. Keep in mind, the U.S. military is stationed on opposite sides of Iran. Any military action done to Iran would draw the U.S. in, if for any other reason than the U.S. military would be the closest military the mulhals would want to counterattack.
