Iran crisis talks end in discord
9 May 2006

Foreign ministers of world powers have failed to agree on a unified position on how to tackle the Iranian nuclear crisis, after a meeting in New York.

A senior state department official said prospects for an agreement this week on a UN Security Council resolution were "not substantially good".

On Monday, Security Council foreign ministers, plus that of Germany, met in New York but failed to agree on a resolution on Iran.

After the late-night meeting, a senior unnamed state department official said agreement was unlikely this week but said discussions would continue with a meeting of political directors of the Security Council next week.

However the official said the US was "very satisfied and confident" at the stage the process was at.

Gee, no wonder Condi had such a big pout on yesterday. No one wants to play with her and Mustache Johnny.

2. Sounds like someone is taking Nancy Regan's advice:
"Just say no!"
Increasingly, countries are standing up to the hegemonic bullying of the US. Perhaps being downwind from the potential fallout from the possible nukes in Iran is convincing China and Russia that Bush is a madman.
