Iran defiantly rejects new U.N. demands
Why, it's almost as if they think the UN is a powerless, hidebound bureaucracy more suited to mindless finger-wagging than an effective deterrent to international brigandry!
Posted by Terry Oglesby at March 30, 2006 10:05 AMWell, I for one am quite frightened by the UN. It is always dangerous to be near complete incompetence.
Posted by: Larry Anderson at March 30, 2006 10:24 AMMaybe we could threaten to drop it on Iran.
Posted by: Terry Oglesby at March 30, 2006 10:52 AMHmmm. Wouldn't complete incompetence mean they were competent at something? I wouldn't personally advertise my competent incompetence, but maybe it works for them?
Here's a slogan: "The UN: We can Screw Anything Up, and in 140 Languages"

Wow that is a big surprise since Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov again stated that his countries stance is that it would not support the use of force to solve the Iranian nuclear problem. The AP quoted Lavrov as saying, "As many of our European and Chinese colleagues have stated more than once, any ideas involving the use of force or pressure in resolving the issue are counterproductive and cannot be supported." It sounds like it’s just another game. France played the game recently and how has it worked out for them?
