VIENNA, Austria - A package of incentives presented Tuesday to Iran includes a provision for the United States to supply Tehran with some nuclear technology if it stops enriching uranium _ a major concession by Washington, diplomats said.

The offer was part of a series of rewards offered to Tehran by European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana, according to the diplomats, who were familiar with the proposals and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were disclosing confidential details of the offer.

The package was agreed on last week by the United States, Britain, France, China and Russia _ the five veto-wielding members of the U.N. Security Council, plus Germany, in a bid to resolve the nuclear standoff with Iran.

To paraphrase Bob Dole, we just can't win.

Go to war, all about oil.

Compromise for peace, all about oil.

We built half of a reactor for North Korea in the hopes that they'd stop building nukes.  That worked really well, and I'm sure we can expect similiar results from any similiar agreements with other countries.
Everyone I know, goes away, in the end.

I don't know what we can do to stop Iran from building a nuke. Iraq's oil for food program proved that sanctions won't work. Guess the best we can hope for is that they will become responsible members of the nuke owners club. Of course we should keep a couple hundred multi-megaton ICBMs pointed their way. Maybe surface one of those nuke subs off their coast occasionally to let 'em know we're thinking of 'em.

Hey, if you can't stop them, at least it's a way for United States, Britain, France, China and Russia to make money installing those plants, and off course, keeping an eye on what's going on.

I like the chain of event on CNN:

- Iran portrayed as the new big evil for months
- Announcement of the "No oil for you USA".
- Two days later, The Big Gay Debate.
- Next morning, US to give nuke tech to Iran.

:lol

Weapons of Mass Distraction.

I like how this gay marriage thing has played out over the long term;

2004- before election;
Vote republican or they'll be marrying sheep next!

2004- after election;
We have found that most americans don't want government in their bedrooms.

2006- before elections;
Illegal alien terrists seek gay marriage!

I saw the headline & couldn't bring myself to read it. If they would print the agreement in it's entirety(sp?) I would be interested to see just what it contains.

 We already put it on Iran once. I have always wondered why we had the navy blow up the Iranian oil platforms instead of occupying them & pumping them dry.

Basically they're just disguising a nuclear bomb  in the shape of a reactor... I mean - it's the biggest ever nuclear tojan horse ever! Best diplomatic solution for us to nuke Iran. In the end..."man, I don't know what went wrong with that reactor....it's a tradegy" Then blame it on operator error. :)

That things gonna go up and take Iran with it....lol

The US sold 100's of F-14's to Iran. Strangely, they all stopped flying one day...
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Tomcats? I thought they were F-4's?  Why would Iran need Tomcats? They're a fleet protection aircraft.
