Obama demands Iran come clean on nuclear program

PITTSBURGH (Reuters) - Bolstered by other world powers, U.S. President Barack Obama demanded on Friday that Iran come clean about its nuclear program or face "sanctions that have bite" after the disclosure of a secret uranium enrichment plant.

Issuing a stern warning to Iran at the end of a Group of 20 summit in Pittsburgh, Obama pointedly declined to rule out the military option in dealing with the bitter standoff with Tehran but insisted he preferred to resolve it diplomatically.

Obama stood earlier in the day with the leaders of Britain and France in accusing Iran of working in secret for several years to build a covert underground plant for enriching uranium that could be used for developing nuclear weapons.

"The international community has spoken. It is now up to Iran to respond," Obama said at a closing news conference.

The fresh disclosure of the scope of Iran's disputed nuclear program added a new sense of urgency to Tehran's much-anticipated talks with the United States and five other powers on October 1 in Geneva.

If this matter were so important to Obama, why didn’t he bring it up at UNACORN?

Obama is so far in over his head that there is no digging out. The only question is how much harm comes to America and Americans during and immediately after his tenure.

Two points.

First, its apparent from news reports Obambi had to announce the facility's existence today since Iran informed the IAEA about its existence earlier in the week. This is NOT good news for Obambi, despite how Reuters and others may be spinning it. It makes him look the fool for his speech yesterday which may have been why Iran revealed this in the first place.

This leads to the second point. Obambi's a narcissist. He doesn't like being made to look the fool. Hence, there's a real danger as to how he will react. Should he get sanctions, 'with teeth,' how will the Nut Job react? His regime internally is weak. His only option may be some kind of hurried but effective attack on Israel and WWIII is on.

Our only good option here would have been for the last year to be setting the stage and getting the assests in place to take these facilities out. I doubt that's been done. Hence, we face the worst possible situation. A president immature, out of his depth, and dangerously emotional faces an insane apocolyptic. As I stated on another thread, recently, 'My advice to you, (America), is to start drinking heavily.'

does all this remind anyone of the twelve years and countless resolutions at the UN Security Council against Iraq before President Bush ordered the Iraq invasion?? Are we going to see a repeat??

Ewww I bet Ahmadinijad is scared now, eh?

I mean the whole world has been telling him to come clean for years and years...
But since Obama has said it now, that ‘changes’ everything, right?

The cartoon below pretty much sums up the Obama approach to Iran. Go get'em Obama, draw that scary line in the sand that Gordon Brown promised.
