ATTACK IRAN NOW: IRAN WILL NOT HALT NUCLEAR BUILDUP

They don't even want to talk about it. Not even with Obama.

Iran's top nuclear negotiator ruled out on Saturday discussion of freezing uranium enrichment at any subsequent round of talks with major powers.

Asked by Reuters if Tehran would consider a demand to freeze enrichment as a precondition for full negotiations on its nuclear programme, Saeed Jalili said: "We will only discuss common points of the package."

But a senior Iranian diplomat at the Geneva talks said: "Of course we will not discuss the freeze-for-freeze topic in the next meeting with Solana. First we would like to discuss the common points and if an agreement is reached then we can discuss our differences."

"The freeze-for-freeze issue cannot be accepted because this (enrichment) is our right and we will never abandon our nuclear right," he added.
And the US response? Cooperate or face confrontation.
The United States said on Saturday after inconclusive international talks with Iran's nuclear envoy that Tehran must choose between cooperation or confrontation and give up sensitive nuclear work.

"We hope the Iranian people understand that their leaders need to make a choice between cooperation, which would bring benefits to all, and confrontation, which can only lead to further isolation," State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said in a statement after the talks.

Saturday's talks were the first to include the United States.
It's just about time to rumble. I have this feeling that we are going to find out the real meaning of shock and awe. I just see some major destruction coming to Iran. Major.
