Obama urges Iranian compliance over nuclear demand

Friday 25th July, 2008
United States Democratic presidential candidate, Barack Obama, has urged Iran to resolve its dispute with the West over its nuclear program.
Speaking in the French capital Paris, Mr Obama warned Tehran not to wait for the new US president to be elected in November before acting.
Obama said Iran should accept Western proposals to change their behavior to be fully integrated into the international community with all of its benefits.
He urged Iran's leaders not to wait for the next U.S. president to push them "because the pressure, I think, is only going to build."
Mr Obama had arrived in Paris to be greeted on the steps of the Elysee palace by smiling French president Sarkozy.
'Bonjour,' said Obama, after he was urged by journalists to say something in French and to pose for more handshakes with the French rightwing leader.
The US presidential campaign has riveted France, where hundreds of fans milled in the streets to catch a glimpse of the Illinois senator.
Nicholas Sarkozy told Friday's edition of Le Figaro newspaper that Obama was a "friend."
He said: "Unlike my diplomatic advisors I never believed in Hillary Clinton's chances. I always believed that Obama would be nominated."
Mr Obama has now flown to London for the last leg of the tour that has taken him to Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel, the Palestinian territories, Jordan and Germany.

Obama urges Iranian compliance over nuclear demand
Lets' face it whether he is black or white, the US President will react the same to Iran simply because they have to toe the line of the Jews. Otherwise you will never become President of US.

Obama urges Iranian compliance over nuclear demand
Well, get ready for some more war and killing people. Obama is not the man he professed himself to be when he first started his campaign. Looks like more of the same to me. Americans are going to suffer big time for this with their economy, to the point of severe depression and the fall of America just like Russia. Stupid people in the White House really make me want to throw up!

Order of Priorities...
Where does Iran’s Nuclear activity fall in the ranking of dangers to the Peoples of the World?
Where does Obama rank Iran? Especially in light of at the fastest Iran could have enough weapon grade material for only one weapon? Ome weapon of course poses danger to a very large number of the World’s Population.
So where does Iran Fit? And what kind of acts are justified for reality of Iran Today? With the knowledge of what Iran professes and the International Law that covers the whole of the Arguemnet!
Such is one hand of the 'facts'! And there are more hands to be looked at!
Widely reported and even accepted are an existing 150 nuclear weapons already threatening the Peoples of the Area!! Where do these actual weapons fit in Obama’s ranking?
We keep hearing threats against Iran, and its like the speaker is dead when it comes to the actual weapons holder of the 150 nuclear bombs!
With the failures rampant in the US WEAPONRY, and the often writtings of concern regarding the former Soviet Weapons and Materials what are the top 10 concerns?
I believe most US CITIZIENS have been worked up enough, that their response would be iran is number one!, but is it really? What criteria is being used to determine the ranking risk? Do we ever even hear of such a thing as ranking risks? No because what we hear is all propaganda!
The Priorities are set on the basis of targeted areas for stripminning! Not the Safety of the World’s Peoples!
