Iran sanctions 'depend on proof'
Russia has ruled out sanctions against Iran unless there is proof that its nuclear programme is not peaceful.

Mikhail Kamynin of the foreign ministry said Russia must see "concrete facts" proving Iran's non-peaceful activities.

The US has been trying to rally support from UN Security Council members like Russia for tougher action against Iran.

1. You mean they want more than scrubs word?

But why?

[Disturbed]

4. Uh, like the proof that Iraq had WMDs?

The Bush Regime doesn't need no stinkin' proof of anything because who is going to stop them from doing whatever they want to do?

2. Sounds reasonable to me. I guess that makes me commie.

7. No I think that makes you what most Am. are and maybe

most of the GOP has finally got it into their heads that the people running their party are far right nut balls and hardly real Republicans. It seems to me many are seeing what we knew all along. Bush is just part of people dismantling the welfare state and it is not what people want. The movement has been the other way for years as the state has to do things in a highly developed society like ours. Business or single people can not do it.Plus every one knows that these so called tax cuts have ended up in the 1 percent at the top even if you got a small check at the start of it. When the man ran he almost ran as a Dem. Every time he went to the ranch he came back with a dem. plan. And he really did not get in with many votes so we know the people did not really want all this stuff that he has pushed through Congress.

11. Bush has certainly made people feisty, uncomfortable about their future,

12. Well yar but we have a lot of things going for us in this country and

I do not wish to see it go. I have grand children and I and my family have been here a very long time. Take this one thing. Why sell off land in our park system? Can be a Dem. or in GOP and see that the pop. is growing and it is a thing people will want and need as lands get used up. We should be adding to the lands for this increase in pop. And to sell the rights off to a logging company, or building homes or having Holiday Inn make a profit I do not think is going to do it. Profits for to day often are not the thing for long range thinking. Or is it better for us all to pay some big corp. to enjoy the land the gov. has turned over to them or sold to them to make a profit on?

3. Sounds like

a fair comment to me. Unfortunately **** (The President formerly known as ****)may not be able to cope with a common sense approach devoid of lies.

5. I'm sure we've got some cartoon trucks as evidence...

if Colin Powell didn't take them all when he cleaned out his office.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

6. I guess they want something more than we had against Iraq....

...like the "aluminum tubes", "WMD trailers", or "Niger yellowcake".

[habitual]

8. Proof that the administration has no credibility in the world n/t

[oblivious]

9. I remember when the Aghanistan govt asked for proof that Osama did 911.

With proof they were willing to hand him over.

No proof was given. No proof has been given to this day.

Just death and destruction.

[David__77]

10. Of course, there is no proof.

Iran may be developing nuclear weapons, but there is no proof in US hands. This is an unjust, immoral war the Bush crowd will be waging. People need to be firm in opposing any war against Iran.

13. Republican warmongers should take this slap-in-the-face personally

[Theduckno2]

14. Putin to Bush, "Trust but verify".

Bwhahahahahahaha. That's too good.

With what Bushco has done to U.S. credibility, the Treasury Dep't will have to use an aircraft carrier as collateral just to increase the debt limit.

[HuffleClaw]

15. i wonder what 'proof' bushco. will come up with?

aluminium tubes?
