U.N. Orders Iran to Suspend Nuke Program



It's serious now, the UN is involved. I'll bet the UN is capable of writing hundreds of more demands too, just in case Iran doesn't comply.

Of course, force would never be an option if the UN's demands are not met, so Iran has no reason to agree to any UN demand.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out over the next twelve years.

I'm making a valid point. The point being the the UN holds no power and demands no respect because they refuse to enforce their demands with force when required.

This has led to a situation in which NOBODY cares what the UN demands.

Here is my future vision, as I gaze into my crystal ball:

1. Iran will ignore the UN or simply lie to them
2. Iran will continue to work on Nukes
3. When it's apparent that Iran is close to a nuke, Israel, the US or both will be the only nations that will act to prevent it.

The UN knows Iran is building nukes, so you'd think they would back up their demands with force. Maybe they will this time, but as of now I wouldn't count on the UN to do anything other than author more documents in their publishing house.

Nilsen, if you look at the UN in the past 10-15 years, you KNOW Nuke is correct on this one.

No brainer, its as simple as knowing your history. Though, I think the US should stay out of this one. This way, Europe may decide to vote for minimizing the threat rather than just leaving the US holding the bag.

Reverse psychology you could say...

Hard to imagine how a country like Iran which had a democracy and parliment back in the 50's could be in such dire straits today.

Oil, it's the worst enemy of democracy.

The question was who cause Iran to be the way it is...not the world.

Of course if you want to get into that..which group has caused the heinous acts in recent history in the name of their religon?

12 years? i say 1 year.
i'm sure Iran unlike Iraq have WMD ready.
The west was watching Iraq the last decade, and Iran
had all the time to build what they want.
Iran is a different caliber, this can go really dirty.

Can someone explain to me why North Korea, who admits having Nukes, and is part of the Axis of Evil hasn't been invaded yet?
