I was just trashing youyr phoney assertions that there wasn't any reason to believe they're out of compliance.

False. Your initial claim, which I disputed and called on you to substantiate was "Iran should be strung up for threarening[sic] the nuclear proliferation treaty." (post #13)

Whatever your intentions, your manifest failure to back up this wild assertion with any evidence only succeeded in trashing your own credibility. Just in case there was any doubt about your intentions, you repeat your error:

It must be frustrating having to continually be an apologist for a group of states that use Hezbollah, Hamas The Taliban and Al Qaeda
as their primary ambassadors.

If you read any of my posts, you will be familiar with the contempt I repeatedly express for all theocratic movements, including those so influential in your own country - the Religious Right. Again, the only thing trashed here is the cred of someone who would make such a nonsensical claim. It appears you are intent on turning self sabotage into a lifestyle. Good luck with that.

Oh Bullshit.

You say whatever keeps you specious argument afloat for one more desperate post to push your agenda. The fact is, there's blame enough on both sides.
   And you continued practice of denying that there aren't unsolicited terror attacks planned and executed by Palestinian extremists, is simply parodying intelligent discourse.
  So be clear on this point. If you dish out bullshit, be prepared to be treated like someone doing so.

What do you think would have happened if the Germans had not attacked Russia, and instead consolidated their conquests and continued the "Battle of Britain?"

And why is this important in discussing government's current conduct regarding Iran?

Iran has drawn back from its ambitions to build a nuclear weapon, Israel's defense minister was quoted as saying on Tuesday, while warning that his country may still have to decide next year whether to launch a military strike against it.

quote:

Defense Minister Ehud Barak told Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper that an immediate crisis was avoided when Iran chose to use more than a third of its medium-enriched uranium for civilian purposes earlier this year.

He told the paper that the decision "allows contemplating delaying the moment of truth by eight to ten months".

"There could be at least three explanations. One is the public discourse about a possible Israeli or American operation deterred them from trying to come closer," he said.

"It could probably be a diplomatic gambit that they have launched in order to avoid this issue culminating before the American election, just to gain some time. It could be a way of telling the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) 'oh we comply with our commitments'."

Analysts say Iran already has enough low-enriched uranium for several nuclear bombs if it were refined to a high degree, but may still be a few years away from being able to assemble a missile if it decided to go down that path.
