Some time ago (well, here, actually) and here, too, where I said that our dithering and kowtowing to Iran and Korea will only embolden them because all we do is talk, threaten, do nothing, they give a little, we give a lot, they take a lot, we talk, threaten (later, rinse, repeat)
Well, Iran just did that.
In a hell of a slap in the face to the POS who won the election to lead this country in 2008 and said he was “ready to “talk without preconditions” with Iran” finds himself wondering why no one respects him because Iran just announced they are building 10 more nuclear enrichment sites.
The Iranian government approved a plan Sunday to build 10 new uranium enrichment facilities, a dramatic expansion in defiance of U.N. demands it halt the program.
The decision comes only two days after the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency censured Iran, demanding it immediately stop building a newly revealed enrichment facility near the holy city of Qom and freeze all uranium enrichment activities. The rebuke angered Iran, raising demands from lawmakers Sunday to cut back cooperation with the U.N.
The enrichment announcement is likely to stoke already high tensions between Iran and the West over its controversial nuclear activities. The U.S. and its allies have hinted of new U.N. sanctions if Tehran remains defiant.
A Cabinet meeting headed by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ordered the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran to begin building five uranium enrichment sites that have already been studied and propose five other locations for future construction within two months, the state news agency IRNA reported.
The Cabinet ordered the new sites to be on the same scale as Iran’s only other industrial-scale enrichment plant currently in operation, near the town of Natanz in central Iran.
About 8,600 centrifuges have been set up in Natanz, but only about 4,000 are actively enriching uranium, according to the U.N.’s International Atomic Energy Agency. The facility will eventually house 54,000 centrifuges.
Meanwhile, Israel’s Ambassador to the US went on Fox News and said, while taking a shot at Obama (mmm, mmm, mmm) “yes we can, yes we must, yes we will.” Further, to quote Weasel Zippers:
Just this one video proves:
1. Obama is weak and the world knows it.
2. Israel has no confidence in our President and that is why they are begging Russia and China to help stop Iran.
3. Israel is really our only hope.
4. The libtards hated the fact that Bush was so strong against Iran. Their chickens are starting to come home and roost aren’t they?!
I hope everyone who has a job is secure in that job and can walk to work because if Israel strikes at Iran oil will go to $300 a barrel and Obama and his minions in Congress will do nothing to allow us to build more nuclear plants or drill for more oil. So I also recommend you invest in a case or two of K-Y because, baby, you are about to be screwed….HARD…AND OFTEN.
The question? If Iran launched a nuclear missile at Israel, would Obama order an ICBM strike against Iran? Or, does Iran fear a retaliatory strike from the US when they develop and use a nuke?
