WASHINGTON — A Syrian facility that Israel bombed last year had similarities to a nuclear reactor and chemically processed uranium particles were found at the site, but a final determination can't be made until Syria provides "the necessary transparency," a new U.N. International Atomic Energy Agency report out Wednesday says.
"The onus of this investigation is on Syria ," said a senior U.N. official, who requested anonymity because the report is confidential.
A separate IAEA report says that Iran has persisted in stymieing the agency's probe of its nuclear program and continues to defy U.N. Security Council demands to suspend uranium enrichment, a process that can produce fuel for nuclear weapons.
"There is no communication whatsoever, no progress regarding possible military dimensions of their ( Iran's ) program," the senior U.N. official said.
The reports served as stark reminders of one of the thorniest security issues that will confront President-elect Barack Obama — global nuclear proliferation — particularly Iran's refusal to suspend the uranium enrichmen... >>>

by Farhad Kashani on Sat Nov 22, 2008 04:34 PM PSTTrueIranian,
Oh yeah? Apartheid, he? Hwo about the open practice of Apartheid against the Bahais, Jews, Christians, Zarostrians, Sunnis, ,,? How about the open Apartheid against Kurds, Arabs, Balouchs? How about the open Apartheid against Women? How about the open Apartheid against anyone who is "not Hezbollah? How about the mass murder of political oppositions? How about the mass imprisonment of whoever left in the opposition? How about butchering freedom of speech, religious freedom, freedom of thought, privacy, individual freedoms,,,,,? how about those?
IRI is a murderous regime. Khomeini is the Hitler of post WWII.
Speaking of fascists
by TrueIranian (not verified) on Fri Nov 21, 2008 05:16 PM PSTAs a matter of fact, the only country in the region that fits the concept of "fascism" is the racist, Apartheid regime of Israel.
Advisor jaan, you're
by Farhad Kashani on Fri Nov 21, 2008 02:09 PM PSTAdvisor jaan, you're right!
However, I think we need to take back the Iranian voice. These people, although are a tiny minority, have hijacked it for a long time, and the result for that was, the establishment of the Islamic regime. If we are to fight the regime, we need to speak out.
Thanks for your support, and please speak out.

Apparently when anti U.S anti Iran Islamist Socialists like you get confronted with fact and logic, your true character comes out ! I'm talking about your last comment.
Farhad jaan, don't bother with these vermins

Since you are such a nice Zio-Nazi Moron, go F&^% yourself. That should relieve your mental stress !

All of you anti U.S and anti
by Farhad Kashani on Thu Nov 20, 2008 10:25 PM PSTAll of you anti U.S and anti Iran socialists who are upset about the truth coming out slowly but surely, missed the point that it is the U.N who said that, not U.S or Israel of anyone else! In addition to the U.N, the world public opinion knows about the fascist nature of regimes such as Syria and IRI. But I understand that you guys always fall behind in understanding truth.
Mr. Kashani,

The only ....
by Baba on Thu Nov 20, 2008 03:55 PM PSTThe only "non-facists" in FK's dictionary are the Zio-Nazis who are enslaving, murdering, and killing people, along with destroying people's homes and dreams.
Zionist lies
by smhb on Thu Nov 20, 2008 10:00 AM PSTI guess Mr. Kashani the ardent resident zionist knows well how to spin his fellow zionists lies. After all he was trained by them.
LOL!
by no_noname (not verified) on Thu Nov 20, 2008 07:41 AM PSTSo let me get this straight. The country that itself has built over 200 nukes secretly goes to another country bombs their facility. Then uses their media connection to leak some story out and puts the onus on the country that should be the plaintiff.
That's what we call the audacity of Chutzpah! LOL
