Israel's Clear and Present Danger

A clear and present danger to the existence of Israel is speeding ahead towards it's publicly stated goal of acquiring nuclear weapons and wiping the Zionist state off the map.

Iran to defy EU by resuming nuclear activity.

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran said on Sunday it would resume sensitive nuclear activities at once without waiting for EU compromise proposals, a move that the EU said was “unnecessary and damaging” and could derail their talks.

Iran said it was acting after the EU failed to meet a deadline set by Tehran to deliver an offer to break the impasse.

But the British Foreign Office said the EU — represented by Britain, France and Germany — had informed Iran that “full and detailed proposals” would be delivered in a week. The EU plans to offer economic and political incentives in return for Iran’s indefinite suspension of uranium enrichment, nuclear fuel reprocessing and related activities.

“We urge them not to take any unilateral step which would contravene the Paris agreement as that would make it very difficult to continue with the ... negotiations,” it said.

A senior Iranian nuclear official told Reuters on condition of anonymity: “As we did not receive the EU proposals, naturally we will definitely resume work at the Isfahan plant tomorrow.”
