3. in june el baradei said he believed Iran did want nukes
zionist forever   (09.01.09)
In June 17 2009 the Egyptian El Baradei who for years has been trying to get Israel disarmed gave an interview to Jeremy Bowen for the BBC in which he said said he had a: " gut feeling about Iran's leaders desire to have the capacity to produce nuclear weapons. The reasoning behind wanting the capability to produce nuclear weapons is to send a message that they will not tolerate being disrespected by naighboring countries and countries around the world. " Less than three months later he is saying that the likelihood that we'll wake up tomorrow and Iran will have a nuclear weapon isn't supported by facts thus far. El Baradei & the IAEA have even less credibility than the Iranians themselves because they keep changing their story whenever it suits them. If the world wants to know what Irans intentions are then don't get the IAEA to investigate tell Iran to invite American & European independent experts to visit their nuclear sites. Iran claims they want a negotiated solution to this problem & the claim they are not trying to develop nukes so open up all nuclear facilities declared & non declared sites to non IAEA inspectors. If there is nothing to hide then what are they afraid of the US & Europe are using more advanced nuclear technology than Iran is so there are no secrets to steal for espionage purposes.
4. SPOKE TRUTH AT THE END OF THE DAY
MAHMOOD ,   LONDON-UK   (09.01.09)
El-Bardei had no advantage in speaking what he did as many many countries have expressed their doubts over hue and cry emanating from known sources about the Iranian progress on Nuclear activities.It was made to look as though Iran had already manufactured something and waiting for the time to disclose its achievements.Far from it,Iran has not even stepped up the required manufacture of enriched uranium for that purpose.But continuous outcry and hiped statements have actually back-fired and have made many realise the game being played by the Zionists with USA toeing the line as an accomplice. No wonder the non-aligned countries continuously supported Iran.This trend is likely to draw the attention of some Eurpoean countries who are missing lucrative deals in Iran.One by one,we are going to witness withdrawal of support for something that does not exist.Well done El-Bardei.
5. IDIOT !!!.
ORAO STRANKA. ,   TSARIGRAD U SRBIA.   (09.01.09)
Mohamed ElBaradei, the outgoing head of the UN atomic watchdog, called the threat from Iran “hyped” and said there was no evidence that the Islamic republic will soon have nuclear weapons. DO THIS IDIOT BELIEVE THAT, IRAN WOULD RATHER SHOW EVIDENCE OF SUCH A THING, THEN TRY TO HIDE THEM AS MUCH AS THEY CAN ???. “Yes, there’s concern about Iran’s future intentions and Iran needs to be more transparent with the IAEA and international community,” he said. WHAT IS IRAN HIDING BEHIND THIS NONTRANSPARANCY THEN ??? “But the idea that we’ll wake up tomorrow and Iran will have a nuclear weapon is an idea that isn’t supported by the facts as we have seen them so far,” he said. AS FAR AS YOU HAVE SEEN ???, WHAT HAS YOU THEN NOT SEEN???. WHAT AN IDIOT THIS IS !!!. In a report last week, the IAEA said that Iran had slowed production of enriched uranium, which can be used to make a nuclear bomb, and agreed to tighter monitoring of its enrichment plant. A SHOW FOR THE EYES OF IAEA. Orao.
6. Iran not making nukes now but build ability to make them
Bloodyscot ,   Dallas, USA   (09.01.09)
Iran want to build up it military first before making nukes. They would like to use plutonium to make many nukes but that will take 5 to 10 years where as they could use uranium now but only make 1 or 2 bombs. Once Russia agreed to sell Iran their latest aircraft, Iran was willing to start working with IAEA. Since Israel has not signed NPT it is limited in the pressure it can use, mainly military as in bombing. Iran has poor grade uranium ore and needs time to learn how to process it better or keep trying to importing higher grade ore

your Hamas family member today in Gaza? This is most likely what is going on in Iran too, Mossad is slowing down their progress
9. Good work Mossad
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (09.02.09)
in slowing down to undetectable levels the development of Iran's nuclear weapons, there is no other reason why Iran is not proceeding with their declared intentions
10. Give Us All A Break!
