Great Zot! After first "Reaffirming its commitment to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, the need for all States Party to that Treaty to comply fully with all their obligations, and recalling the right of States Party, in conformity with Articles I and II of that Treaty, to develop research, production and use of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes without discrimination", on March 3, 2008, the UN Security Council – allegedly "Acting under Article 41 of Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations" – perversely proceeded to "reaffirm" its "decision" of 23 December 2006 that Iran "shall, without further delay, suspend"
"a) all enrichment-related and reprocessing activities, including research and development, to be verified by the IAEA; and
"(b) work on all heavy water-related projects, including the construction of a research reactor moderated by heavy water, also to be verified by the IAEA"
The blatant irrationality boggles the mind. And it's barely conceivable that the reason the mainstream media didn't report on the irrationality of that resolution to you was that their minds got boggled, long ago, early in the reign of King George.

"King" George, ha? Wow! You
by Farhad Kashani on Wed Oct 22, 2008 07:21 PM PDT"King" George, ha? Wow! You know what, I would like to have a king like that, a king who gets elected by the vote of people, a king who only serves for two terms,...I will take a "King" like that any day over the unelected, fascist tyrant like your beloved Khamenei.
