..The installation ... had been monitored by the intelligence services of the US and other nations for some time. But it wasn't until Monday that the IAEA found out about its existence, based not on any intelligence "scoop" provided by the US, but rather Iran's own VOLUNTARY DECLARATION (on the 21st of September 2009).

Israel/Pakistan and India clearly have nukes. They are not signatories to the Non-Nuclear Proliferation Treaty and they surround Iran. I'm not surprised Iran would want to protect itself.
Israel has already used "Threat of War" on IRAN which is a WAR CRIME in itself.
Why would anyone expect Iran to comply to the conventions of Nuclear Armament when it's Zealous neighbouring states do not.....
If you think that you can sit with these fundamentalists at a table and discuss global issues such as climate change and solar energy etc., you are mistaken. These men have never read and learned something new and are too illiterate to understand such matters. They are the same as Taleban with whom you are fighting at present. These men are terrorists, murderers and torturers, Sir! Please support Iranians to form a humane democratic government. Mandana
The protestors were challenging a democratically elected government. It is their right.
No country should interfear in the democratic election process of another nation..
It is tragic the deaths of Iranian protestors, but there are 10s of 1000s of Americans losing their homes and dying of starvation right here in the US? What about them??
Also when we can't get our own elections right -we should not involve ourselves in the elections of other countries. Obama was careful in what he said while the Iranian government attacked him and others anyway. This was to lead the people to their side and against us -then stop the democracy in progress. The manipulation did not work.
zionist are terrorist, have been causing distruction on earth for century's they go around pointing finger's at so called german war crimnal's or muslim's but when the finger start's pointing at zionist terrorist for war crime's they hide behind the united nation's, who of course are a punch of pupate's for these american zionist who also use these peace papers with blob of ink to cover there war crimes. that's why so called isreal is geting away with massacring innocent children & women
the difference is that those countries have been fighting for years, why have they been fighting for years? because both sides, in each case, have weapons... the protestors in Iran dont have guns, so its a slaughter not a battle. Thats why people should act, and put selfishness aside, anyone who is getting beat with no remorse deserves help no matter where they are from.
WTF!? why would Obama care about the death of Michael Jackson to the extent of FOREIGN RELATIONS AND AFFAIRS! wtf is wrong with you? Greatest singer/dancer of all time - psh that is an opinion not a fact. Innocent protestors dieing is a fact. And like TuWylde said the wars in Africa have been going on for years and in Iran, people are dieing for democracy - our fundamental belief. It wasn't the same for the cases u just mentioned. And we did know about Bosnie and Rwanda, just did nothing for it.
Not true. Majority of Americans did not know what happenned in Rwanda or Darfur or Sri Lanka. In these places, people died in the 10s of 100s of 1000s, but the Iranian protestors violently challenged a democratically elected Government and unfortunately died.
But, imagine what would have happenned if White supremists challenged the election of Obama violently. Or democratic supporters violently tried to overthrow Bush in 2000 for Nepotism and fraud. FAR WORSE THAN IRAN.
its because the american govt which is really a jewish govt want to overthrow the iranian govt because they expose the jews and speak the truth about them they have conferences on free speech and everything the iranians are so radical lol
The difference with Iran is that the poele of Iran have been able to use the WW to communicate directly with the outside world - and we no not need to reply on didactic media any more - never again. Things are very different in 2009 and freedom will become Viral and global citizens flock to dismantle dictatorships. wtach this space - things globally could unravel pretty fast - no government will be immune, Include EU and US & China
Last time i checked moron The diamonds are already strictly controled. And since most of the worlds diamonds are controled in private hands. Creating a competitive market would only drive the price of diamonds down. Like you stated a barrel of oil is more expensive than a tiny diamond. Like i stated there are no worth while resources to exploit from africa. Russia and canada have larger diamond deposits then africa does atm. Africa has been mined since the time of egypts superpower
Wow. Way to catch that sarcasm, dumbass. A barrel of oil is WAY cheaper than a diamond. Even a diamond grain. What you are saying, is that it's LESS logical to go into a country that has a resource which is over priced and capitalize on that(diamonds)? But no, let's go into a country where there is a very uncontrolled market for a comodity. Dumbass.
OK since you are obviously a retatrd. Let me say this again. Diamonds are only expensive because they are controlled in private hands. Diamonds are also only expensive when properly cut. the weight of the diamond is less than 1/2 the value. Cut matters. Also a COMPETITIVE market will drive high prices down. Perhaps you should go shopping for diamonds before you comment on them. oil is a standard price diamonds vary. way to show your intelligence there lol
It's the military rank elite. Identify the core of this issue. They don't have democracy. Join it. and make them live normal life in democracy. Why you give them normal life militarily? No evidence exposed about the election fraud but so many people going on street showed issues about leadership. Cracking down opposition is no election. Democracy doesn't have deadline or contract. It's based on flexible will from most people. Democracy is communication, it doesn't obey laws. Laws obeys it.
No question about North Korea, which wants to fire a long-range missile over Obama's so-called birth state, Hawaii. Not a single word from this so called administration.
you probably dont like obama because he isa person of color, and not for any other reason.
i agree that he wasnt my first pick for president, because i didnt have a pick, but he definetely is better than john mccain(can you say George W. Bush Jr?)
you are a stupid fuck, and you need to get your head out of george bushes crotch, and look around our country and see that it is a pacade, because george bush ruined it!
If US doesnt put the islamic repub out of power they will come and bite US un the back in the future. The islamic repub is a bunch of hammas arab blood sucking dumbasses that dont even know anything about islam. 95% of iran want freedom they are 5% that are in power and they want to push people because they are living lavish lives. Open Your Eyes!
@Amir919 don't just come up with random stats out of your ass. As much as I want a free iran, We both know 95% of the Iran doesn't hate the government, majority does but not 95%. Don't just come up with random stats.
@gohvaan Are you confused? Look at what you are saying! Isn't 95% is a majority and 5% is a minority? You just said the majority Iran doesn't hate the government. Then you said the majority does, but not 95%. Are you high? You are contradicting yourself!
You really seem to be MISSINGGW...missing some screws. This is IRANS problems not USA. The Iranians need to work this out for themselves. Why should Obama take this to the UN? He has from day one been saying that he doesnt like what he's seeing...what else do you want him to do..INTERFERE in another SOVEREIGN nations affairs...see where thats going to get them. Say Mousavvi is in power after Obama's done interfering...he'll have to defend him being a US puppet

Iranians need to know Obama does not care about their opposition movement or for that matter any such movement in the world. Obama is just as happy to legitimize Ahmadinejad. Same as he hugs Chavez while opposition leaders are fighting for their lives in Venz. Remember for the first time Obama admin told China economics are more important than human rights. Obama does not care about the opposition any where in the world and it does not matter if it is Iran, Cuba, Venz, Bolivia, Russia, China etc

Iranians need to know Obama has triple humanitarian aid (soy bean, etc) to Iran since taking office supporting Ahmadinejad. Obama should have cut off this aid to your repressors but refused. Second they need to know Obama has no interest in taking your repressors to the UN for condemnation for their acts. Obama has turned off the light to the city on the hill for the oppressed and you are not welcomed in his change. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's beard runs red with blood and so does Obamas hands.

Iranians need to understand Obama and Liberals in America are taught not to discriminate to the extreme so liberals see no difference between good and bad. They see America, Mousavi, Ahmadinejad all as being evil. Iranians need to know it is the GOP and leaders like George Bush that will not support and legitimize your repressor and it is these Americans that will fight for your freedom when and where they can, but not Obama as he is happy to work with your repressors when and where he can.
I think Cenk is unfair saying that Obama sounds 'eloquent for long enough so you forget the question' that is a lie. I listened to whole press conference and what Obama tends to do is answer the question throughouly! Remember Obama has to tread a fine line in diplomatic relations and he does so with considered answers not knee jerk reactions. I thought of all people Cenk would understand that this is a fine line here. Good job Obama and for letting a blogger in.
It wasn't a fair question to begin with because President of the US does not have the right to accept or not accept the election of a foreign leader by its people. Whoever Iran elects will suffice.
i work for the "old media" (paper, in fact) and i do think web media is largely full of crap.
but i agree, the web has been doing a much better job covering this particular story than anyone else, and i do think that the rest of the "old press" is being completely unreasonable in this instance.
it's a simple fact, in this kind of situation, the web is the ideal medium.
It's hilarious to hear all of these whinning conservatives republicans bitches and fixed cry about the so call main stream media. Shut the fuck up. Fixed news cater to or should I say roll out the red carpet for the neocons
I believe that all of Obamas questions are scripted, check the video of Obama killing the fly, this was a scripted interview as well, when he is interupted by the fly, he tells them where he will "pick up" his response. The media is more than happy to help him "act" his way through this presidency
Ok, for one, there is absolutely no indication Obama knew what the question was.
He clearly thought before speaking which means one thing: He's putting careful thought into answering this very difficult question. How wrong of him to do that.
PS: Google Ads: Cheapest flights to Iran. Anyone interested? :)
I think Old Press needs to get used to the new players - nothing like having the rug pulled right from under you because you were sn00zing on the job.
@ 6:50 I said the same thing when I first saw it! It is not the question that is being ask. It is the Huffington Post. Secondly, they are mad because...why did they not think of that.
Give it up old school media! Your days are numbered.
no there wasn't... if you read his blog you would know he was brought to the press conference for this reason to report what the people were saying in Iran and to ask the President questions from the Iranian people... The President knew about this, as would you if you read the blog... stop with your theories, it can easily be disproven.
Im pretty sure he gets questions pre-scripted prior to the conference. THe POTUS doesn't hav all day to read Huffington Posts blogs as well as various other news articles. Get real dude.
Yeah dude your absolutely correct. It's blatently obvious Geroge Bush had a speech for all of the "AArranged questions" he was going to answer. After all he answered them all eloquently and effectively. Give me a fucking break. He was a stuttering prick who stumbled over everything and you think he cherry-picked questions like this guy and got them all sent to him prior to the conference? If he didn't screen the questions he would get incredibly hard questions as well as asinine ones.
flyingtorpedo - I dont know how many questions Bush knew about in advance of them being asked, but its not strange to think that Presidents know some of the questions or types of questions that they are going to be asked at a press conference. That Bush, with that knowledge, still couldn't provide coherent and reasonable answers to the questions shows just how bad a communicator he was.
again read the guys blog... everything is explained. also, it's nothing new to have the president might know the questions before hand... not many MSM agencies have connections to the Iranian people, like the Huffopost does and that's why he was brought in, to ask the question (of the Iranian people) to Obama. Are you really willing to find at all cost ANYTHING to blame or poke at Obama for.
No Im saying he gets his questions screened and handed to him and you are concurring. You can't get a difficult question when you have known about it in advance and have time to prepare for it. In this segment it's blatenly obvious he is aware of the question and has an answer formatted that he had time to think about. That is just common knowledge if you watch the clip. I do not know how any one could be so ignorant to think otherwise. Fielding unknown questions would be more interesting.
were agreeing on this one video clip... The guy from Huffpost was brought in for this reason to make vocal points about the Iranian people and have the president answer their questions. yeah it is obvious and it was written in Huffpost's blog.
I'm just telling you I can pretty much garuntee you Obama does not have time to read a "blog" by an unknown journalist. It very may well have been published in his online "blog". The president isn't reading his "blog" or the Huffington Post for that matter. He was given the questions before hand.
I'm not blaming Obama for anything. He knew the question before it was asked- that is a fact because he convientntly re-verb the question to the questioner before he asks it. THis is common sense. Meaning he has had time to prepare for it and he can choose when to answer it or if do so at all. THere are many other reporters he can call on as I am sure he is well aware of their questions also. Therefore it is NOT a tough question. Its like a teacher giving you an essay assignment due next week.

Huff Post makes an excellent liner for litter boxes, hamster cages. it's great for wiping mud and shit off the bottom of boots. cleaning paint brushes. lots of uses
That's good that you are recycling and not buying harsh chemicals that slowly come back into the water supply just bacause you are afraid of using a little elbow grease. I wish more American's did the same.

You are a moron. 0bama has done a shitty job on everything so far. 0bama has done so bad that even some of the drones will wake up. What makes you think Old Lady Clinton will still be alive in 2016? Old Lady Clinton finished herself off by signing on with the 0bama administration -- her political career will gone down with his.
Here we have people in Iran being beaten and killed and 0bama sits on his ass. Oh, just recently 0bama was trying to take credit for Iranians protesting the fraudulent election due to his pathetic speech in Cairo. Well, the outcome did not go the way for him to continue trying to take credit. Now 0bama is like a deer in headlights. This guy is clueless, so carry on lamestream media, time for another 0bama infomercial. Sad....very sad.
But it's not your country either. Your country was called the confederacy and it died nearly 200 years ago, thank god.
Now run along to your klan meeting where you can find comfort in the bigoted embrace of your fellow knuckle-draggers and you can all try your best not to realize your complete and total political impotence and social irrelevance.
You can't make a comeback since you have to have been there first. You are relagated to studying Black Liberation Theology and Marxism just like your hero 0bama.
That made even less sense than your usual senseless ramblings. Quite the feat! Evidently my earlier assesment of the condition of your brain was generous... Physical damage may have occured. Seek medical attention immediately.
0bama will attempt to take credit for any good outcome but will refuse to take responsibility for any poor outcome, he will conveniently blame that on Bush. 0bama plays golf and misses the ball he just blames Bush for his ineptitude.
Maybe he should have tried shock and awe and sacrificed 5000 us soldiers and 500,000 iranians in the pursuit of "Democracy". Just cause you don't like obama You don't have to make points that make you look like a complete daft prick. What's sad is the number of brain cells you have.
If your asking me if i'm black then no not really you pig. Your racist mind can't understand the concept of tolerance and acceptance so imagine everyone who doesn't support to be either black or a dipshit. Another thing you have president who's dad was muslim. Hahaha just wanted to say it cause i know this bothers you my little peice of crap haha his middle name is hussain lol!
donottake - u said "Here we have people in Iran being beaten and killed and 0bama sits on his ass." That is ridiculous!
Obama has provided plenty of support to the Iranian people, both publicly and covertly. Obama is NOT Conservative! He will NOT attack a country that poses no threat to our nation! The American people have already rejected ur Conservative warmongering ways with our vote! Now get over it.
U Conservatives had ur chance and u blew it in Iraq! And that is why u lose elecions!
No, 0bama just attacks the United States. You assholes win one election with your fantasy of a black president and all you do is beat your chests like you are the greatest thing since sliced bread. 0bama has been doing a lousy job and has screwed up everything he has put his hands on. Forget the lamestream media, they are just a propaganda machine for 0bama. They are in up to their ears in this fiasco since it was them who went all out to elect him.
donottake - you say "libs won one election". LMAO Ur ignorant!
We control the House of Representatives! We control the Senate! And we control the White House! We control the ENTIRE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT! It takes way more than one election to pull that off!
It actually takes a full blown REJECTION of the Conservatives cult by the American people because we elect our govt!
Pick up a civics books instead of watching the Conservative cult media. They lied to u about ur "one election"crap!
Halette20001.....please never waste your value time with that ass wipe "donottake" that's one sick piece of shit and "flyingtorpedo" is a morn......I wish Obama would get a bit gangster with his policies and simply say fuck the neocons and fixed news.
*8 sentences in 9 minutes!? Ana's unusually quiet. Is it because she doesn't know about anything other than media gossip (half the time the "know it some" even messes that up)?
Chuck Todd was pissed because he'd just been schooled by Obama earlier. I've been sick of Chuck since mid election when he got a big head about his celebrity. He's too focused on the political games, and not on political outcomes.
Everybody was totally up front from beginning to end about what was going on. The blog mentioned how it all was happening, Obama mentioned that he knew the question was going to be from Iran...
What a load of bullshit, who cares about Iran democracy? Iran, Iraq and Saudi have 70% of the world's remaning oil and it goes down to zero by 2050. All this story is about is making Iran a legitimate target...
You could run the same story about Bush's first election - completely illegitimate. See Greg Pallast's work rather than this Turkish jerk.
Really, there are too many serious questions here. Is Obama just extending Bush's black ops against Iran, or has Obama been blindsided by the CIA?
Has the U.S. Played a Role in Fomenting Unrest During Irans Election?
by...
Jeremy R. Hammond
Then, why has the so called "free press" missed the fact that Mousavi Beirut Butcher, is being blatently rebranded? Is not the violence we see on Iran's streets not his hallmark?
Are those opposed to Obama's plan to talk first inciting protests?
The Iranian people who oppose Ahmedinejad have to follow democratic procedures instead of going to the streets and burning everything. What they are doing will not have been accepted over here in England or any western country. What they are doing is simple cause anarchy and hopes the west watches and backs their governments to launch an attack on the current Iranian government. Trying to cause a revolution won't solve anything it will just anger the government and they will respond.
haha and how do you know the elections have been stolen? Were you there and inspected each and every vote that was casted? Or are you another liberal Neanderthal who just believes what the media feeds him? What did the Americans do when bush stole the elections back in 2004? And did the Iranian government and people interfere? I suggest you think a little more before jumping the gun, it could make you look very very stupid.
Yeah, but the democratic proceedures don't work very well in the US either. Politicians sit rubbing elbows deciding whose buddy gets the pork (uh...your hard-earned tax dollars, and mine!).
Hmm, Monsanto is a good buddy, let's give them taxpayer millions so we can poison Columbian Rainforests in the name of the War on Drugs.
Oil Companies record profits aren't good enough...let's give them millions of tax dollars 'cause they're such Good Joes.
The Iranian government wants to keep law and order because at the present moment with all the carnage people don't feel safe on the street. The reason why this is the case is because a few are trying to over throw a government which can and will use force. Mousavi is enjoying this because out of all the carnage he knows a few pictures of bloody people will get to western shores which will incite the people. Mousavi wants the west to do his bidding.
Obamba the dictator fully supports the enslavement of the Iranian population. he's a little jealous that he's having a harder time of doing the same thing in the U.S.
Really... I'm pretty damn sure he's smarter than your whole family. Multi-millionaire, and the fucking President of the United States. He did all this without any legacy (rich family, political family). Yea, he's wayyyy smarter than you.
The whole world is well aware of the BUSH STUPID syndrome. Even the comedy channel devoted an hour special celebrating his departure from the White House with some of his more hilarious displays of stupid-is-as-stupid-sez outtakes. Remember him barfing in the general direction of the Japanese Prime Minister's lap? LOL
Obama, in stark contrast to his immediate predecesor is like Einstein.
I would like to thank BUSH for the LOL memories, but actually..NOT!
Personally, I believe what is happening in Iran is the Iranian people business.They are the only people that should change it and no one should get involve in it.
Nothing is wrong about wanting "freedom or what ever you want to call it" peacefully.
when things getting out of hand, I don`t think anyone can blame the government from wanting to contain the situation.
any Government democratic or not will do the same thing.
Try to do that in the US ,start burning and destroying properties!
That's funny, I'm 23. In the end, what you are saying is absolutely dangerous to protesters and the US. I don't think you are a bad person, you just don't get it. And I know a lot of Iranians that also don't use their brain. If u care about the protesters, spread the news to people like u: Everything Obama is doing right now is what had to be done - nothing more.
Improve the video quality please. The picture of the Young Turks studio is always fine but it always sucks when you show somebody else's video (in this case CNN).
Bush became President Illigitimately and you Yanks want to tell Iran that their president is fiddling the system lol feck right orff!

What you are saying, is that it's LESS logical to go into a country that has a resource which is over priced and capitalize on that(diamonds)? But no, let's go into a country where there is a very uncontrolled market for a comodity. Dumbass.
Philldapill85 2 years ago
OK since you are obviously a retatrd. Let me say this again. Diamonds are only expensive because they are controlled in private hands. Diamonds are also only expensive when properly cut. the weight of the diamond is less than 1/2 the value. Cut matters. Also a COMPETITIVE market will drive high prices down. Perhaps you should go shopping for diamonds before you comment on them. oil is a standard price diamonds vary. way to show your intelligence there lol

Iranians need to know Obama does not care about their opposition movement or for that matter any such movement in the world. Obama is just as happy to legitimize Ahmadinejad. Same as he hugs Chavez while opposition leaders are fighting for their lives in Venz. Remember for the first time Obama admin told China economics are more important than human rights. Obama does not care about the opposition any where in the world and it does not matter if it is Iran, Cuba, Venz, Bolivia, Russia, China etc

Iranians need to know Obama has triple humanitarian aid (soy bean, etc) to Iran since taking office supporting Ahmadinejad. Obama should have cut off this aid to your repressors but refused. Second they need to know Obama has no interest in taking your repressors to the UN for condemnation for their acts. Obama has turned off the light to the city on the hill for the oppressed and you are not welcomed in his change. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's beard runs red with blood and so does Obamas hands.

After all he answered them all eloquently and effectively. Give me a fucking break. He was a stuttering prick who stumbled over everything and you think he cherry-picked questions like this guy and got them all sent to him prior to the conference? If he didn't screen the questions he would get incredibly hard questions as well as asinine ones.
flyingtorpedo 2 years ago
flyingtorpedo - I dont know how many questions Bush knew about in advance of them being asked, but its not strange to think that Presidents know some of the questions or types of questions that they are going to be asked at a press conference. That Bush, with that knowledge, still couldn't provide coherent and reasonable answers to the questions shows just how bad a communicator he was.
halette20001 2 years ago 2
again read the guys blog... everything is explained. also, it's nothing new to have the president might know the questions before hand... not many MSM agencies have connections to the Iranian people, like the Huffopost does and that's why he was brought in, to ask the question (of the Iranian people) to Obama. Are you really willing to find at all cost ANYTHING to blame or poke at Obama for.
ERAUPRCWA 2 years ago
No Im saying he gets his questions screened and handed to him and you are concurring. You can't get a difficult question when you have known about it in advance and have time to prepare for it. In this segment it's blatenly obvious he is aware of the question and has an answer formatted that he had time to think about. That is just common knowledge if you watch the clip. I do not know how any one could be so ignorant to think otherwise. Fielding unknown questions would be more interesting.
flyingtorpedo 2 years ago
were agreeing on this one video clip... The guy from Huffpost was brought in for this reason to make vocal points about the Iranian people and have the president answer their questions. yeah it is obvious and it was written in Huffpost's blog.

I'm just telling you I can pretty much garuntee you Obama does not have time to read a "blog" by an unknown journalist. It very may well have been published in his online "blog". The president isn't reading his "blog" or the Huffington Post for that matter. He was given the questions before hand.
flyingtorpedo 2 years ago
I'm not blaming Obama for anything. He knew the question before it was asked- that is a fact because he convientntly re-verb the question to the questioner before he asks it. THis is common sense. Meaning he has had time to prepare for it and he can choose when to answer it or if do so at all. THere are many other reporters he can call on as I am sure he is well aware of their questions also. Therefore it is NOT a tough question. Its like a teacher giving you an essay assignment due next week.

The Iranian people who oppose Ahmedinejad have to follow democratic procedures instead of going to the streets and burning everything.

The Iranian government wants to keep law and order because at the present moment with all the carnage people don't feel safe on the street. The reason why this is the case is because a few are trying to over throw a government which can and will use force. Mousavi is enjoying this because out of all the carnage he knows a few pictures of bloody people will get to western shores which will incite the people. Mousavi wants the west to do his bidding.

Obama is right 100%,
No one did anything here when we believed BUSH toke the election,we did not see any outsiders taking about in our business.
I am sure If musavi has won and Iranian protested against the result, we are going to call them extremist
and applauded him him for staying in his ground and crushing the "extremist" protectors

Personally, I believe what is happening in Iran is the Iranian people business.They are the only people that should change it and no one should get involve in it.
Nothing is wrong about wanting "freedom or what ever you want to call it" peacefully.
when things getting out of hand, I don`t think anyone can blame the government from wanting to contain the situation.
any Government democratic or not will do the same thing.
Try to do that in the US ,start burning and destroying properties!

That's funny, I'm 23. In the end, what you are saying is absolutely dangerous to protesters and the US. I don't think you are a bad person, you just don't get it. And I know a lot of Iranians that also don't use their brain. If u care about the protesters, spread the news to people like u: Everything Obama is doing right now is what had to be done - nothing more.

Improve the video quality please. The picture of the Young Turks studio is always fine but it always sucks when you show somebody else's video (in this case CNN).
