"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

Iran vows to produce nuclear fuel despite UN vote

Yet another indicator that does nothing to chink the armor surrounding the diplomats version of reality.

Despite the umpteenth statement by Iran that they intend to move forward regardless of incentive packages and negotiations; diplomats will likely continue on in accomplishing their version of success.

According to Reuters:

"The Iranian people see taking advantage of technology to produce nuclear fuel for peaceful purposes as their right," Ahmadinejad told a crowd in the northeastern town of Bojnurd.
This of course, is according to Ahmadinejad, which no one can really disagree with and yes they should have that right; but we're not talking about the Iranian people now are we?

Meanwhile, according to the Islamic Republic News Agency:
Chairman of the Expediency Council Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani said, "recent events in Lebanon along with the praiseworthy resistance of Hizbollah is not unrelated to the ratification of UNSC's resolution against Iran. The current plots of the big powers in Lebanon will not be limited to Hizbollah or Lebanon, they have various scenarios for the world Muslim along with those stand against their interests.
Why on earth would we think Iran's intentions with nukes are anything but peaceful?
