UNITED NATIONS -- Iran may be using its nuclear program to develop weapons for military use, the United Nations says. The U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency said it has received information indicating Iran was "not engaging with the agency in substance on issues concerning the allegation that Iran is developing a nuclear payload for its missile program," the BBC reported Friday. The agency says the information raised "further concerns" about Iran's "possible military dimensions" to its nuclear development despite Tehran's protestations its program is entirely peaceful.

I thought Iran was developing nuclear energy for peaceful purposes. That’s what they told us.

Oh well. Why would we believe the religion of peace.

“I’m not worried, Obama will save the day!”

I’m not certain that he understands the concept of a nuclear “umbrella”...when the missiles start flying, I fear that he might put up an actual umbrella, much like Wile E. Coyote...

I had to check the date on the story. It seems a few years old, but it isn’t.

Not to worry,...Saudi Arabia is now beginning their peaceful nuclear power program. Their incentive is to promote energy efficiency, starting with all those indoor shopping mall down hill ski slopes they’re operating in the 130deg desert climate. It makes sense. It really does...../s

well, truth to tell, that's what the told Mohammed "Muslim Brotherhood" ElBaradei.

The UN is so absolutely useless. You can tell that it's an organization put together and supported by leftists.

It makes absolutely NO sense at all in any way, shape or form.
