VIENNA, Austria (AP) - Iran continues to defy U.N. Security Council demands to scrap its uranium enrichment program and has instead expanded its activities, the International Atomic Energy Agency said Wednesday in a finding that sets the stage for new council sanctions.
The report from Mohamed ElBaradei, the head of the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog agency, also faulted Tehran for blocking IAEA efforts to probe suspicious nuclear activities, saying that meant it could not "provide assurances about ... the exclusively peaceful nature" of its atomic program.

And, in new and worrying phrasing, it expressed concern about its "deteriorating" understanding of unexplored aspects of the program, despite four years of a probe sparked by revelations that Tehran had been clandestinely developing enrichment and other nuclear activities that could be used to make weapons for nearly two decades.


Now other countries are getting involved calling for more sanctions:

French President Nicholas Sarkozy called Wednesday for sanctions on Iran to be tightened if the country does not adhere to the West's demands to cease its nuclear agenda.

If Iran attains nuclear weapons, Sarkozy warned, a road to an arms race will be paved that could endanger Israel and southeast Europe, he said during an interview with a German magazine.

How can anyone honestly be suprised?
All of the "apologists" around these forums who are gullible enough to believe that Iran is pursuing an open and honest energy progrom via uranium enrichment need to pull their heads out of... the sand - or something else entirely.

Iran is pursuing a nuclear weapon! I don't the IAEA or the UN to "verify" it for me to understand what is happening. They intend to develop a nuclear weapon.

They are allied with North Korea - who has a nuclear weapon. They were allied with AQ Khan, the godfather of the Islamic bomb. They have advanced weapons technology from Russia and China. Traces of highly enriched Uranium were found by the IAEA several years ago. And on and on and on and on...

Bring it on apologists... please tell all of us how we are racists and bigots supporting empire building.
Please tell us that we are nothing but a bunch of fear-mongering, war-mongering neocons.
Then quickly duck out of the thread and put your head back... well, where it was before!
