Iran soon to take "final step" in atomic plan: report
TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday his country would soon take the "final step" in its nuclear program,Iran's official news agency reported without saying what that would involve.

The president did not explain what the "final step" was, but Iran has said it will press ahead with its atomic plans despite U.N. calls to halt uranium enrichment, which the West believes is part of a plan to build atomic bombs.

Tehran, which says its aims are peaceful, now faces possible sanctions for ignoring the U.N. demands, but there is still no agreement at the U.N. Security Council about possible penalties.

"The Iranian nation is about to take its final step in the nuclear issue," the official IRNA news agency quoted Ahmadinejad as saying.

1. Did they get their plans from the internet?

2. Those "UN demands" were non-binding and cannot be made binding.
Coz the FACT is, Iran has the "inalienable right" as a signator to the NPT to pursue nuclear enrichment for energy uses.

And the UN knows this.

Unfortunately the "media" doesn't seem to know, nor care, about such facts.
