DUBAI, Oct 5 (Reuters) - President George W. Bush said in comments aired on Friday that the United States was working to resolve the nuclear standoff with Iran diplomatically but was keeping all its options open.

"I have, of course, said that all options are on the table, but I made a pledge to the American people that we will work diplomatically to solve the problem," Bush said in excerpts of an interview with Al Arabiya television.

"We will work in ways that we can to make it clear that (Iran) should not have the know-how on how to make a weapon because of the great threats to peace in the world ... with their stated objective which is the destruction of Israel," Bush said.

...

"You see us at the United Nations working with the EU countries, China and Russia to send that clear message and ... we are going to continue to impose sanctions and make it harder for the Iranian government to operate in the world until they change their mind," Bush said.

"I have said that if they suspend their nuclear programme, we will be at the table (for talks). But they have so far refused to do that."

5. What peace is in Iran's world?

Let's see... to the east is Afghanistan
and the the west, Iraq.
Most of the western nations are threatening them with war...maybe that is why their nuclear ambitions are high; to have a deterrent?
I ask again... what peace?

There will be no peace until ALL are at peace.

Why don't you solve the problem by shutting your mouth and minding your own business
and giving up your Nuclear programs because "of the great threats to peace in the world"

Good God. Is there a Country anywhere that he does not bully, push, and shove?

10. Everytime Bush speaks you must think opposite

when he says all options is on the table means there is only one option War
