Condoleezza Rice
U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice says Iran is a very dangerous state with dangerous policies.

In a television interview on CNBC's Closing Bell Friday, Rice said while Washington is committed to a diplomatic solution, Iran must know "there are coercive elements" to U.S. policy as well.

She said that with Iran becoming "increasingly dangerous," the United States and its allies are discussing new sanctions to further curb Tehran's access to the international financial system.

She said that despite two U.N. Chapter 7 resolutions - the U.N.'s most serious Security Council resolution - Iran continues to pursue technologies that could lead to a nuclear weapon.

When asked if the United States should consider military retaliation, Rice said President Bush "is never going to take his options off the table."

4. condi - name one thing that they have done

differently in the past two years, that somehow earns this threat from you.

Could it be that without war, your president will be seen as the worthless POS that he really is? And that the cover of war is the only thing that protects him?


The only change has been the increase in pressure, in the form of naval combat groups crowding the waters south of Iran, the baseless accusations of IED construction, and the baseless accusations of Iranian support of Al Qaida.

Al Qaida and Iran are mortal enemies. MSM ignored the fact that IED factories have been found in Baghdad, USING US SUPPLIED COMPONENTS AND FABRICATION EQUIPMENT. Having three nuke carrying carriers and their dozens of support ships does not escalate tensions? Bah.
what is increasingly dangerous is the current US policy.

6. Iran is why Impeachment should be on the table!

It would keep the chimp busy and it just might work.

7. Iran has two UNSC chapter 7 resolutions?

If she does, it does allow for military intervention from another nation. However, I have read many things from the UNSC and, to date, I have only seen one UNSC chapter 7 Resolution and that was against Iraq for the invasion of Kuwait. Does anyone have info on these "resolutions?" It's not that I am calling Sec. Rice a liar, but.....

The only one I found was UNSC Resolution 1737 passed in Decemeber of last year, and most of those condtions have been meet, though not on the timeline set. To me, this would indicate the resolution has been met and is "null and void."
