The Iranian government is hosting a nuclear conference Saturday and Sunday in Tehran, in counterpoint to the Washington summit this week to which it was not invited. The meeting comes as the U.S. pushes for a fourth set of sanctions over Tehran's disputed nuclear program, a drive that appears to be gaining momentum. Looking ahead to the Tehran meeting, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad insisted that his country is doing its best to work with world powers. In an interview on state television, Mr. Ahmadinejad said "we are actually after cooperation and negotiation. We still are.” He added that Iran was willing to deal with a formula that protects Iran's rights, includes its independence, dignity and honor - and excludes the nuclear issue. It's that kind of mixed message that frustrates so many. Iran insists its nuclear program is for peaceful, civilian purposes. But by refusing to comply with U.N. nuclear agency requests, it deepens suspicions that it seeks nuclear weapons.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad delivers a speech during ceremony marking Iran's National Day of Nuclear Technology in Tehran, 09 Apr 2010

Then, they’re going to take their football and run straight home.
The press will probably give the Nuculear Nut Job a glowing report.
“The Iranian government is hosting a nuclear conference Saturday and Sunday in Tehran, in counterpoint to the Washington summit this week”
The difference is, at the Iranian conference they are actually going to build a nuclear bomb!
Hey BO, read the last part!
I guess threatening to detonate nukes in American cities to kill "peaceful, civilian" people counts.
Sound like a familiar pattern? Personally I hope this current saga has the same happy ending.
I surprised Zer0 isn’t going.
You’ve got to hand it to the Iranians. They sure know how to ridicule Obama. But hey, not to worry. Obama will just take out his frustration on the Israelis.
Based on activities today in Israel, I hope there is nothing left of Iran by Saturday except a huge smoking hole.
