TEHRAN, Iran — Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says Iran will enrich its uranium to a higher level in direct contravention to an international call to halt the process.

Ahmadinejad expressed frustration with negotiations over a U.N.-backed deal to swap Iran's low-enriched uranium for higher-enriched fuel rods to power its medical research reactor.

He told a crowd of thousands Wednesday in the southern city of Isfahan that Iran "will produce 20 percent" enriched uranium and "anything it needs" for its nuclear program.

Nutjob is acting like a despot who already has a bomb or two in his pocket, now feeling free to flip off the US and Europe

Hmmm. 20% enriched is the dividing line between light water and weapons grade material.

Sly bastards.

With a fake president who is a muslim, America has been forced face down on a prayer mat. Enough of this Obama-nation!! It’s beyond embarrassing.

If mossad’s background research is to be believed, Mr Nutjob is a Jew by ancestry

deranged depots transcend their religions of birth or of convenience- NPD and other socio/psychopaths are not inspired by religion- they use it

"Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says Iran will enrich its uranium to a higher level in direct contravention to an international call to halt the process."

I am so sick of "international calls," "Letters of Warning," UN Proposals and sanctions, ad nauseum...

The logic that if banging one's head against a brick wall for 5 minutes doesn't fix the headache issue, somehow banging against the wall for ANOTHER 5 minutes will miraculously do the trick is ludicrous! How do such morons actually continue to survive when their mental capacity is so lacking? I swear that at least half of the people on the earth would perish if breathing and heartbeats were not involuntary actions which required no mental concentration to perform...

The thing that gets me is - if they don’t think he’s doing it for nefarious purposes, then why all the “international calls” to stop?

In other words, stop pretending with diplomacy you don’t really believe in and do something about it!

There’s absolutely no reason the Iranian regime should do anything the “International Community” say. If there are sanctions, they’ll just make secret deals with the French, Germans, Russians, Chinese, etc. like Saddam did. If Israel attacks, they’ll be able to play that to their advantage in several ways. The only threat they have is from their country and 0 will do his best to minimize that threat.

a person who lies, is not necessarily a nutjob.

a Shia Muslim who believes the 12th imam is coming
back soon, is not necessarily a nutjob

STOP refining uranium! or we will say STOP again, if you don't stop then, we will say stop again.

How many times do you tell a two year old to stop, before a swat in the butt is required?

Yet another example of the expert and effective foreign policy by Nobama and SOS Clintoon. Excellent!

I guess we will end up finding out if Bibi is strapped with a big set of brass ones . . . I’d like to think so because he sure does talk a big game, but I still I’m reminded about how he “gave away” Hebron during his first stint as PM

It is up to Bibi now - are they up to the challenge, because the man-child that is now leading our country certainly ISN'T.

Can you blame them at this point? They would be fools not to take advantage of the moron in the White House.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad should just come out and state the obvious, “we are determined to have a stock pile of nuclear weapons so that we can bully our neighbors, obdurated Israel, so that the Maddi will rise from the well, making Islam the world’s only religion, bringing a Taliban utopia to the world”. And the strangest thing is that Western Governments will still do NOTHING to stop him.
