Rice says time
for talking with Iran is over
By Sue Pleming
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza
Rice said on Monday there was strong international consensus
against Iran's nuclear plans and time had run out for talking
to Tehran.
With Italy's
foreign minister at her side, Rice said the next step must
be to refer Iran to the U.N. Security Council. The United
States believes Iran is building a nuclear bomb but Iran says
its nuclear program is for peaceful, energy purposes.
"The referral
absolutely has to be made," Rice told reporters.
"Iran must
know that there is a firm international consensus against
the activities that Iran is currently engaged in. We would
all like to solve this diplomatically and we are all committed
to doing so but Iran must recognize the concerns of the international
community and has not done so."
Iran on Sunday
urged the European Union to return to negotiations with Tehran
on its nuclear program, saying talks were the only way to
defuse its nuclear standoff with the West.
Rice said the
time for talking was over and European discussions had come
to a "dead end" because of Iran's actions. "I
don't see much room for further discussion in any format,"
said Rice.
Asked whether
the United States, which has about 140,000 troops in Iraq,
could afford to take military action against Iran, Rice said
the focus was on diplomacy but reiterated that no options
were off the table.
"We have committed to a diplomatic course," said
Rice, adding: "The president takes no options off the
table."
The United States and the European Union want the International
Atomic Energy Agency, at an emergency board meeting on February
2, to refer Iran to the Security Council for pressure including
possible sanctions.

This is the third article in three days
the first was one that Israel warned Iran that it would attack.
The second that same day was Vice President Dick Cheney commenting
on what Israel had said in which Cheney stated that in and
war the US would back Israel
The question is no longer if the US is
going to attack Iran but when .
I will relate a few tidbits on a talk radio program
a military expert spoke of the US congress voting down a program
to build nuclear bunker busting bombs that would have had
great penetration in the course of this he said the US had
given Israel 500 conventional bunker busting bombs that they
were now practicing with them
A Iranian man who
I know that worked with me at pizza hut as a driver a few
summers ago just got back from a trip to Iran visiting family
and relatives. He told me that the people “hate” this new
president he used the word “crazy” a half dozen times to describe
what friends and relatives over there felt about him. This
man I know was emotionally agitated, and clearly disgusted
as he spoke. Anyway there were two crashes in Iran a few weeks
ago one wiped out dozens of top reporters – and the second
crash wiped out a bunch of their leading generals. – He told
me that on that second flight the president of Iran was supposed
to be on it, but at the last minute he did not go on the flight.
He claimed this was an assassination attempt – which he implied
was from elements within Iran.
As I have stated
elsewhere the president of Iran is a strong believer in the
twelfth Imam and it is his earnest belief that he shall soon
appear – and all of this in connection to his rhetoric on
war and his building of nuclear weapons. - What the president of Iran is not saying is
that he is going to try to create a confrontation so that
this prophet will appear.
In their writings
he will appear when all of fundamental Islam is being persecuted -- I read that as bushes war on terror is going to continue to succeed.
But that the 12th hidden Imam along with
the devil when their own are to the wall will stand up and
fight for them in the form of two men the antichrist and the
false prophet
In Revelation it
speak of a star falling out of heaven and opening a pit from
which the false prophets and its demons were chained
-- in the book of Enoch we are told who is chained
in their and its location -- in revelation it tells us that that devil
is not satan, but Abaddon and also called Apollyon the destroyer
who later either makes himself in the form of the false prophet
or possesses him. And that leaves satan to possess the antichrist
himself.
I will suggest that
the star falling out of the heavens with the key to the bottomless
pit could be a nuclear missile.
A missile or series of missiles that, in the book of
Revelation miss Israel, and strike in the desert in or near
Gaza opening that pit.
The Mosque of this
twelfth Imam is located in Iran and I will mention here that
it has a very interesting feature in it a well in which his
followers drop notes (they’re prayers) that they want him
to receive – who would send note to the under-parts of the
earth so their hidden prophet might hear?)
And
the president of Iran believes Iran’s overthrow or the threat
of Iran’s being taken by non-Muslims will of cause this hidden prophet – who we know
as the from the book of revelation to appear. They have their
own distinct prophecies and if you put them against the prophecies
of the antichrist you can see how their writings and prophecies
are all twisted.
