The president of Iran says he is willing to hold talks with the West over his controversial nuclear program.

But he says he will only stop enriching uranium if the West stops too.

The Iranian president said he is open to negotiations over Iran's nuclear program, but he said they must take place under just conditions. He rejected the West's preconditions for holding talks.

President Ahmadinejad said he is willing to shut down Iran's uranium-enrichment program, if the Western nations that have been pressuring him to do so shut theirs down as well.
more...
so Iran is not stopping

2. He's as batshit crazy as Bush is. They fucking deserve each other.
Ahmadinejad's not even in charge of the Iranian Military. Being an Islamic Republic, that falls on the Ayatollahs.

3. but the US has the right to have all available methods of defense available!
I mean, it's a totally different situation: a crazy megalomaniac like Ahmaddiinajaksflkj can't be trusted with a nuclear arsenal. He might even actually use one against another country, which is something the US would never.... oh, wait.

4. Sheesh, it's not like the US would ever nuke another nation.
more than twice. We can stop at two; what's the problem if we have 10,000 of the little monsters.

8. More than twice? How about hundreds of thousands of times?
Somehow Iraq and Afghanistan are now polluted with non-depleted uranium thanks to our weapons...

How many of our soldiers will die from exposure to that stuff?
