Moscow, Apr 19: The United States demanded today an end to Russia's cooperation with Iran in building the Islamic republic's first civilian nuclear power station and also suggested halting a sale of Russian missies.

"We also think it is important for countries to stop cooperation with Iran on nuclear issues, even on civilian nuclear issues like the Bushehr facility," Under Secretary of State Nicholas Burns told journalists in Moscow.

Burns made it clear that he was talking about various countries' work with Iran's nuclear industry. However, Russia is Iran's biggest nuclear partner and is building the country's first atomic power station at Bushehr.

According to the United States and other Western powers, Iran is using its civilian programme to hide a secret military project, something insists is untrue.

7. Leave it to these losers to reinstigate the Cold War.

God, can't they do A SINGLE THING well? It's just embarrassing. I'm going to start telling everyone that I'm Canadian.

8. FartHead Bush at it again...

He chose to cooperate with India and transfer Nuclear technology to them and so Russia can do the same....

It's actually a better solution, because this way at least Russia can account for all the nuclear material and ensure it is not used for a bomb.

Has Bush ever had face-to-face talks with Iran....??? Wouldn't that be a good starting point?


There is absolutely no evidence that Iran has a secret military Nuclear project...

9. this is pretty sick...

it's like watching the school-bully shaking down some little kids, all the while knowing the big kids are right down the street waiting to pounce.
:rofl: and :scared: at the same time.

10. OK folks.....this is it.

The folks in Washington have thrown down the gauntlet. The mask is coming off. When they are demanding, not just telling a major power what to do, you better believe we have reached a new level of aggression.

The desperation of Bush and his cronies is now very apparent. I fully expect Bush to tell Chairman Hu (who is in Washington today) what he can and cannot do. Same for India.

This is not just regarding Iran, but everything in general. Diplomacy is over. It's time to pull out the nukes. I'm not kidding about this.

They sense their hold onto power is very tenuous and is slipping from their grasp (Rumsfailed vs. the generals) that they damn well COULD do just about anything right now.
