Bush accuses Iran of dragging its feet
Bush accuses Iran of dragging its feet

VIENNA, Austria -
President Bush on Wednesday accused
Iran of dragging its feet on a Western incentive package aimed at getting Tehran to suspend uranium enrichment activity. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said earlier in the day that his country will respond by mid-August to the proposals presented to Tehran in early June by EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana.

If Iran accepts the offer, it has to suspend its uranium enrichment — a process that can produce material for nuclear generators or bombs.

"We'll come to the table when they verifiably suspend. Period," Bush said at an annual U.S.-
European Union summit here.

He said that the mid-August timetable "seems like an awfully long time" to wait for an answer. "It shouldn't take the Iranians that long to analyze what's a reasonable deal," Bush said.

2. With things going badly in Iraq
Bush really believes the country will rally around him for an Iran attack.

He is sadly, and tragically mistaken.

Iran will be his Waterloo.

5. two thirds of the "axis of Evil" tells Chimpy to take a flying leap. The
2 most dangerous of the three is making him look like the jackass he is, and he can't stand it.

7. -- Sign this petition against military action against Iran --
Of course - they want this war and they will probably get it too.

It is with grave concern that I observe the growing threat of a new U.S. war--this time against the people of Iran.

For a collection of articles and resources on this subject you can visit this link: http://reseaudesign.com/research/iran/iran_summery.html

I'm starting up a petition which I will be sending out to as many members of Congress as possible. I'm asking for help to get this signed by as many people, possible in the next month. Send it to as many people you can.

thanks,
J-shmoe
