Hannah Arendt Hannah Arendt Bush and Cheney also scoffed at intelligence reports that cast major doubt on these allegations. Bush still rejects the conclusion that Iran shut down its nuclear weapons production. He also rejects evolution. He no longer intimidates and he stands exposed as a fraud. The CIA informed Bush in August of its benign findings, but he shrugged off the facts and continued to insist on war as his answer to a non-existent threat.

So, McConnell released the report which, for Bush, compares with his twins making the centerfold of Playboy -- on the humiliation scale. The intelligence community sucker punched the Great Intimidator -- in public. In , after U. Israeli intelligence clings to its claim that Iran will soon build a nuke. Truth is a kick in the balls? Bombing is good for Israeli manhood? For Bush, good nations behave obediently. England and now France, for example, should possess nuclear weapons.

Sort-of-good Pakistan still rates approval obedient by mouth, which is good enough ; and of course, beloved Israel -- with or more nukes. The CIA and their British equivalent in the name of anti-communism and in the interest of the oil companies overthrew that government and set up a puppet Shah, who ruled despotically until when militant Muslims dumped him and established a theocracy. The President and most presidential aspirants follow the U. To keep its status, Washington without casus belli invades and occupies other countries.

Those who dare challenge such blatantly illegal behavior now become Islamofascists. After almost a decade of Iraq-Iran slaughter, the United States punished Iran with sanctions -- while covertly selling it missiles to support anti-Sandinista rebels in Nicaragua. His neo con advisers usurped power from the traditional Establishment, much as Nixon did with his California outsiders. Such behavior made the traditional agency heads seriously pissed off.

Even after the invasion turned sour, the neo cons pursued their plan to attack Iran. The repercussions from the revelation will play out in Europe as well. Repetition of history with a new metaphor! The NIE revealed to the U. Previously, they had accused Teheran with providing Iraqi insurgents bombs to kill U. Sadly, presidential hopefuls from both Parties, excepting Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich, still buy into the anti-Iran axiom.

They agree with Bush that the United States should not permit other nations to help anti-U. The imperial bullshit level has surpassed the feeble imaginations of Cheney, Bush and even the presidential candidates. His latest book is A Bush and Botox World. Bush among them, told the American Newsweek magazine in an article published Friday.

Citing conversations he had in Israel with officials in Mossad and the Israeli defense establishment, Riedel concluded that "Israel is not going to allow its nuclear monopoly to be threatened. Riedel told the magazine his impression that Israel would venture a strike on Iran on its own was formed before the publication of the joint US intelligence agencies' report, the National Intelligence Estimate NIE. Since the publication of the NIE, which reversed a previous American assessment by concluding that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program in , leaders worldwide have been adjusting their publicly stated positions on the Iranian nuclear issue.

Even inside the US, President Bush attempted some damage control by stating a day after the report's publication that "Iran was dangerous, Iran is dangerous and Iran will be dangerous. In the international scene, Russia's decision to renew fuel shipments to Iran main nuclear facility at Bushehr was interpreted by many anlysts as stemming directly from the NIE's publication; another development possibly stemming from the report is Russia and China's hardened position on further sanctions against Teheran. In Teheran, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was quick to capitalize on the NIE, calling it an "Iranian victory" and demanding that the United States publicly apologize for its previous bellicose stance.

Zuvor hatte Bush vor einem Dritten Weltkrieg gewarnt. Es ist eine bewusst falsche Lesart des Berichts, denn der Iran stand nicht unter hohem Druck. Irans Atomwaffenprogramm, wenn es eines gegeben hat, wurde kurz nach dem Fall Saddam Husseins eingestellt. Vielleicht kennt man solche Gedanken auch in den USA: Keines dieser Ziele kann ohne den Iran erreicht werden. Das Land hat seine Apokalypse hinter sich. Eine Alternative gibt es nicht. Der im Iran geborene Politologe publizierte im Oktober Senior policymakers from key European countries have since called for a diplomatic offensive.

She also warned that further UN or unilateral sanctions would exacerbate the situation. He further said that the time for direct US-Iran talks is ripe. Both Beer and Polenz have underscored that such negotiations should start without any preconditions. The proposed policy reorientation towards Iran from confrontation to dialogue is the only way to regional and global peace and stability. Security Council sanctions on Iran are clearly illegitimate, they harm Iranian people and are a prelude to war. It is vital that these recommendations are heeded without delay and SC resolutions and sanctions on Iran are removed.

Polenz war aktiv an den Verhandlungen zwischen den EU-3 und Iran beteiligt. Krause Erschienen im gedruckten Tagesspiegel vom Statt sich als Teil der Exekutive zu verstehen, wollten sie sie nun auch kontrollieren. Ausgerechnet, spricht doch hier ein Mann, der bis heute versucht, seine enge und alles andere als ruhmreiche Zusammenarbeit mit den US-Geheimdiensten zu verschleiern. Genauso, wie die Balance zwischen den Produzenten und den Nutzern von Geheimdiensterkenntnissen wieder herzustellen.

Ayatollah Khatami said the report has some positive points. One is that it explicitly acknowledges that Iran does not have nuclear weapons today. Moreover, it admits that since Iran's nuclear energy has been peaceful. Another point, which is a source of honor for our system, is that they have reported that in Iran made a serious jump in the field of nuclear technology. The acknowledgements by the enemy is a success. One is that it maintains Iran had perhaps been seeking nuclear weapons prior to That's an American lie which has been raised repeatedly by the US statesmen. They have claimed that Iran had stopped seeking nuclear weapons on the US pressure, which is another lie," said Ayatollah Khatami.

The cleric said Iran has the right to be pessimistic over the enemy. If it bore smile on its face, we should say that's satanic. So, we consider the report neither a big political victory nor something of less value and we maintain our vigilance. Our Islamic system carefully watches all movements of the enemy. The criminals do not wish to see Lebanon in peace," he declared. We consider it as a political victory that our Arab neighbors have come to the belief that Iran is their powerful friend and they want to have a peaceful co-existence with it.

Iran too has shown that it has been their best friend after the triumph of the Islamic Revolution". He said the neighbors should be cautious that certain countries' claims, raised every now and then, that they own the three Iranian islands is a "US trap. Bush personally orders torture. They bring the inmates under torture and film it, then remove all traces of the crime and claim they defend human rights.

This is seriously a fiasco for western democracy. This proves that if they resist the enemy will start to escape. We tell Brown, rest assured that you cannot remain long in Afghanistan too and will escape from there without gaining anything. The reason for it is your claim that you wanted to be in Afghanistan to reduce poppy cultivation, while it has been tripled. We have reliable evidence that you are cooperating with Taliban and provide the militia, which is an outstanding example of terrorism, with money so as to remain in power for another short time.

That's too a British-style lie. Thanks God, our nation is for ages resentful and hateful of the old colonialist. Washington DC - The U. National Intelligence Estimate's assertion that Iran currently does not have a nuclear weapons program has caused much frustration in Israel. Though the report aggravates Israel's effort to compel Washington to pursue an increasingly harsh line against Tehran, all is not lost for Israel. Freilich assumes that detailed talks between the U.

According to Freilich, a lack of symmetry exists between the U. From Israel's perspective, Iran presents a potential existential threat, so its nuclear plans must be stopped at almost any price. In contrast, the U. In Freilich's view, this difference in evaluations dictates the nature of the dialogue. Freilich lists the alternatives; he believes that diplomacy and sanctions have a slim chance of success. He mentions a quasi-military alternative such as a naval blockade or secret sabotage action, an Israeli or American military action, or coming to terms with a nuclear Iran, with the U.

He opposes the proposal that Israel move to an open nuclear policy to deter Iran. Freilich says Israel would prefer that the U. He notes that if Israel believes it can successfully attack Iran, Israel fears that the U. Freilich believes that despite these mutual reservations, detailed discussions between the U. In addition, Iran in any case would see the U. Freilich proposes a dialogue on Iran's possible responses, on terror attacks and the disruption of oil shipments from the Gulf to the West.

But he also seeks a dialogue on how to live with a nuclear Iran. Chronology of Iran's nuclear program Envoy: France is not ruling out a military strike on Iran. Speaking about the Unspeakable: And it injects more tension and instability into the Middle East at a time when we should be doing everything in our power to prevent that region from spiraling out of control.

Good because the intelligence community was willing to reconsider an important intelligence judgment. More importantly, it's good news that Iran doesn't appear to be currently working on a bomb. He should seize this opportunity and engage in serious diplomacy using both carrots and sticks.

One, is we no longer have to have a policy that's either based by hype and fear, but can now be clear-eyed and hardheaded as it approaches the Iranians. We do not have to operate from fear or weakness. We have strength here. And I think the NIE report shows that. Our strategy must be one focused on direct and comprehensive engagement and diplomacy…backed by the leverage of international pressure, military options, isolation and containment. Now is the time for America to act in light of the NIE report and the momentum generated by the Annapolis Middle East meeting last week.

We need to give diplomacy with Iran more of a chance. And I believe we need to use every means at our disposal — economic, political and diplomatic — to persuade Iranians that peaceful development of energy options, free of any hint of military use, is well within reach.

This suggests that Tehran may be open to a combination of pressure and incentives to keep it from returning to developing a nuclear arsenal.

And the latest publicly-available intelligence indicates that it will take longer for Iran to produce sufficient materials for a nuclear weapon than previously thought. So we have more time — beyond the end of the current Administration — to continue to push for this mixture of pressure and incentives. They need, now, to aggressively move on the diplomatic front. They should have stopped the rattling -- should never have started it. This is the latest in a long line of inaccurate and misleading comments that got us into the Iraq war to begin with. They further diminish the credibility of a President with a dangerous record of overstating threats.

He should announce that his Secretary of State and Secretary of Defense are prepared to meet anytime, anywhere with their Iranian counterparts to conduct vigorous diplomacy to advance U. It has issued judgments that break sharply with its own previous assessments, and they reflect a real difference from the views espoused by top administration officials.

Von Helmut Reuter, dpa. Die Wirtschaftskooperation sollte nach seiner Ansicht mit einem konstruktiven Verhalten Teherans im Nahost-Friedensprozess verbunden werden. Speaking to IRNA, he said the issue proves Iran's position of peaceful nature of its nuclear activities, therefore, the western countries and Europe in particular should compensate the losses Iran suffered in terms of finance and prestige.

It is Europe which should compensate and win Iran's trust, he underlined. To show their goodwill and political determination, European countries should prevent the intervention of United Nations Security Council from any involvement which would further weaken IAEA.

The US, particularly in the past four years, has reported incorrect information on Iran's peaceful nuclear activities which only wasted IAEA's time, he said. Iran is to continue cooperation with IAEA to help resolve remaining issue on its dossier, he pointed out. Bush holds a press conference to discuss the National Intelligence Report on Iranian nuclear capabilities.

In this press conference President Bush comments to reporter's questions about the newly released National Intelligence Estimate. Among other, he maintains the importance of putting pressure on the Iranian government and isolating it. He calls Iran "dangerous" and views the NIE as confirmation of his policies, and not in contradiction to it. He maintains that the "carrot and stick" approach with the government is effective and should be with the help of U.

The new estimate says that the enrichment program could still provide Iran with enough raw material to produce a nuclear weapon sometime by the middle of next decade, a timetable essentially unchanged from previous estimates. But the new report essentially disavows a judgment that the intelligence agencies issued in , which concluded that Iran had an active secret arms program intended to transform the raw material into a nuclear weapon. Administration officials said the new estimate reflected conclusions that the intelligence agencies had agreed on only in the past several weeks.

The new report came out just over five years after a intelligence estimate on Iraq concluded that it possessed chemical and biological weapons programs and was determined to restart its nuclear program. That estimate was instrumental in winning the Congressional authorization for a military invasion of Iraq, but it proved to be deeply flawed, and most of its conclusions turned out to be wrong. Intelligence officials said the specter of the estimate on Iraq hung over their deliberations on Iran even more than it had in , when the lessons from the intelligence failure on Iraq were just beginning to prompt spy agencies to adapt a more rigorous approach to their findings.

The report on Iran had been requested by members of Congress, underscoring that any conclusions could affect American policy toward Iran at a delicate time. The new estimate brought American assessments more in line with the judgments of international arms inspectors.

Es begann mit einer Lüge - Zehn Jahre nach dem Irak-Krieg (Doku)

Last month, Mohamed ElBaradei, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, reported that Iran was operating 3, uranium-enriching centrifuges capable of producing fissile material for nuclear weapons, but he said inspectors had been unable to determine whether the Iranian program sought only to generate electricity or to also to build weapons.

The fact that Iran continues to refine its abilities to enrich uranium, they said, means that any decision in the future to restart a nuclear weapons program could lead Iran to a bomb in relatively short order. Administration officials said the White House had known at the time that the conclusions about Iran were under review but had not been informed until more recently that intelligence agencies had reversed their conclusion. In September, officials said, Gen. The estimate concludes that if Iran were to restart its arms program, it would still be at least two years before it would have enough highly enriched uranium to produce a nuclear bomb.

Instead, the report released on Monday concludes that it is more likely that Iran could have a bomb by the early part to the middle of the next decade. Intelligence officials presented the outlines of the intelligence estimate two weeks ago to several cabinet members, along with Mr. During the meeting, officials said, policy makers challenged and debated the conclusions.

The final draft of the estimate was presented to Mr. Officials said they now planned to give extensive briefings to American allies like Israel, Britain and France. Intelligence officials had said just weeks ago they were ending the practice of declassifying parts of intelligence estimates, citing concerns that analysts might alter their judgments if they knew the reports would be widely publicized.

But in a statement on Monday, Donald M. Das Atomprogramm wurde demnach schon gestoppt, die Bedrohung ist geringer als gedacht. Gemeinsam kommen sie zu einem eindeutigen Ergebnis: Secret talks with Iran on nuclear reactors by Ben Fenton source: Russia delivers more nuclear fuel to Iran: Nuclear hoax by John Cherian source: Fewer people are aware that similar groups from other Middle Eastern countries frequent the halls of Congress and editorial board rooms carrying their frightening ghost-written books with guidance from pro-war think tanks.

The organized challenge against the National Intelligence Estimate NIE summary on Iran this month included such a group, which for years cried wolf about Iran.

British MPs call on government to oppose military attack on Iran source: However, very few EDMs are actually debated.

Instead, they are used for reasons such as publicising the views of individual MPs, drawing attention to specific events or campaigns, and demonstrating the extent of parliamentary support for a particular cause or point of view. Sudan, Iran, and the War for Civilization source: George Monbiot wrote in the Guardian last month: Its state-run parent company, Sinopec Group, currently importing 60, barrels per day bpd is determined to purchase , bpd as of next year, said Reuters quoting two informed sources.

Based on the deals signed between Iran and China, Beijing will import around six percent of its total oil demand, namely , bpd, from Iran in It took almost three years to finalize the talks on the crude deal. China is the world's second largest oil consumer. Iran stops selling oil in U. A senior oil official last month said "nearly all" of Iran's crude oil sales were now being paid for in non-U. For nearly two years, OPEC's second biggest producer has been reducing its exposure to the dollar, saying the weak U.

At a November summit of Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries heads of state, Iran suggested oil should be sold in a basket of currencies rather than dollars, but failed to win over other members except Venezuela. Ahmadinejad and his Venezuelan counterpart, Hugo Chavez, are vocal critics of U. Hojjatollah Ghanimifard, international affairs director of the state owned National Iranian Oil Company, last month told Reuters that most of Iran's oil export earnings were in euros, with some in yen.

That would allow them to carry experimental ton Massive Ordnance Penetrator MOP bombs designed to smash underground bunkers buried as much as ft beneath the surface through reinforced concrete. Tenders have now gone out for a production model to be ready for use in the next nine months. The "static tunnel lethality test" on March 14 completely destroyed a mock-up of the kind of underground facility used to house Iran's nuclear centrifuge arrays at Natanz, about miles from the capital, Tehran. Although intelligence estimates vary as to when Iran will achieve the know-how for a bomb, the French government recently received a memo from the International Atomic Energy Agency stating that Iran will be ready to run almost centrifuges in 18 cascades by the end of this month.

That is in defiance of a UN ban on uranium enrichment and would be enough to produce a nuclear weapon within a year. The Ministry of Defence says the US government would need Britain's permission to use the island for offensive action. It has already been used for strategic strike missions during the and Gulf wars against Iraq. The atoll, the largest in the Chagos Archipelago chain, lies about miles from the southern coasts of India and Sri Lanka.

It is ideally placed for strategic missions in the Middle East. The new Big Blu bomb is 20ft long, weighs 30,lb and carries lb of high explosives. It is designed to go deeper than even existing nuclear bunker-busting weapons. The bomb is designed to be dropped from as great a height as possible to achieve maximum velocity and penetrating power, guided on to target by satellite and accurate to within a few feet. Each B2 bomber would be able to carry only one weapon because of its weight. The B2s, normally based at Barksdale, Missouri, flew round-trip strikes against Baghdad in , but would ideally be positioned closer to its targets for missions against Iran.

The Pentagon has drawn up contingency plans for a range of attacks on Iran. The likeliest is a five-day bombardment, aiming to disable nuclear facilities and all major airbases and radar facilities; the most devastating would involve air and cruise missile attacks on targets, including headquarters and barracks of the Iranian Republican Guard Corps, over more than a month. The US branded the Revolutionary Guards a terrorist organisation last week in the latest round of diplomatic sanctions against Tehran.

Ahmadinejad felicitates Austrian counterpart on National Day. According to the Presidential Bureau, in the message, President Ahmadinejad underlined that "Fortunately the two sides's high ranking officials are determined to broaden friendly ties between the two countries. Oktober in Washington mit. Zwingend notwendig ist, dass die Bundesregierung nicht nur mit der Regierung des Irans, sondern vor allem mit der US-Regierung spricht.

Nuclear energy "indispensable" says EU report. The report, Conventional Energy Sources and Energy Technology was adopted with votes in favour, against and 30 abstentions. Renewable energy sources are expected to be economically competitive with conventional energy sources in the medium to long term Iran never let its legitimate rights be trampled upon. Iran is to show good-will when it sees the same from the other side It is about three decades that Iran has faced sanctions mostly by the Americans or even some unofficial sanctions imposed by the Europeans, he said In the meantime, the Zionist regime is now developing its nuclear facilities without any concern, he underlined.

The foreign minister said those who try to persuade the UNSC to impose more unjust sanctions on Iran, prevent the same from being applied to the Zionist regime Kritik an der Entscheidung kam auch aus Russland, das sich ebenso wie China gegen Sanktionen ausspricht. Ahmadinejad's stock rose even higher after his speech this week at Columbia University; people in Iran and the Arab world are angry at Columbia University president Lee Bollinger for insulting the Iranian leader during his introduction. The entire uproar over the Columbia event - played right into the Iranian leader's hand.

When Ahmadinejad says controversial things, the western world condemns him, but is he even talking to the West? In fact, same-sex relations in Iran do look very different from what is called gay behavior in the West. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was derided for his statement in a Sept. Though many Americans may find it incredible, differences in the construction of sexual behavior do exist across cultures.

As an anthropologist, I can state with confidence that sexuality varies tremendously between cultures. The notion that one is either "gay" or "straight" does not accord with what we observe in human sexual behavior, which is far more flexible. This categorization is an artifact of American culture, which glories in binary categories for classifying people. Folks that identify as "bisexual" yet another ambiguous category in the United States often get grief from both the gay and straight community for "deluding" themselves about their sexuality.

The articles points to the president's popularity among Muslims who believe that their leaders are too beholden to or frightened of the Bush administration. He makes me feel proud. He's a symbol of Islam. He seems the only person capable of taking a stand against Israel and the West. Iran will not attack Israel - Iranian president says his country never sought to expand its territory, says reported IAF attack in Syria stemmed from 'Israeli expansionism' and had nothing to do with Iran.

Every Monday night at 10 o'clock, Iranians by the millions tune into Channel One to watch the most expensive show ever aired on the Islamic republic's state-owned television. Its elaborate s costumes and European locations are a far cry from the typical Iranian TV fare of scarf-clad women and gray-suited men. But the most surprising thing about the wildly popular show is that it is a heart-wrenching tale of European Jews during World War II.

Over the course of the 22 episodes, the hero saves his love from Nazi detention camps, and Iranian diplomats in France forge passports for the woman and her family to sneak on to airplanes carrying Iranian Jews to their homeland. On the surface, the message of the lavish, state-funded production appears sharply at odds with that sent out by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who has repeatedly called the Holocaust a myth. In fact, the government's spending on the show underscores the subtle and often sophisticated way in which the Iranian state uses its TV empire to send out political messages.

The aim of the show, according to many inside and outside the country, is to draw a clear distinction between the government's views about Judaism -- which is accepted across Iranian society -- and its stance on Israel -- which the leadership denounces every chance it gets. Fatthi, 48 years old, is a well-known director of historical fiction for television. In the past, his work has focused on Iranian history. But he also dabbles in comedy, winning international critical acclaim two years ago for a hit feature, "Marriage, Iranian Style. Abdol Hussein Sardari saved over a thousand European Jews by forging Iranian passports and claiming they belonged to an Iranian tribe.

Fatthi says he chose the title because the world at the time was in dire circumstances, offering few options for avoiding the terrors to come. Shot on location in Paris and Budapest, the show stars Iranian heartthrob Shahab Husseini and is so popular that its theme song -- an ode to getting lost in love -- is a hit, too. No matter where I am or what I'm doing, on Monday nights I find a television set and watch the show.

Fatthi enlisted the help of Iran's Jewish Association, an independent body that safeguards the community's culture and heritage. The association has criticized Mr. Ahmadinejad's comments about the Holocaust but has praised Mr. Iran is home to some 25, Jews, the largest population in the Middle East outside of Israel. Iran's Jews -- along with Christians and Zorastrians -- are guaranteed equal rights in the country's constitution. Iran's Jews are guaranteed one member of parliament and are free to study Hebrew in school, pray in synagogues and shop at kosher supermarkets.

Ahmadinejad's statements, it isn't government policy to question the Holocaust, and the country's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, hasn't endorsed those views. While Iran makes it no secret that it considers Israel an enemy, it has been extremely touchy about criticism of its treatment of Jewish citizens.

The show is seen as an effort by the government to erase the image that it may be anti-Semitic -- both at home among Jews and non-Jews, and abroad. The message appears to be grabbing the public.

Sara Khatibi, a year-old mother and chemist in Tehran, says she and her husband never miss an episode. The Jewish state was conceived in modern times by Western powers rather than as part of a centuries-old desire of Jews for a return to their ancestral homeland. In one scene, a rabbi declares it a bad idea for Jews to resettle in Arab lands. In another, the French Jewish protagonist refuses a marriage offer by a cousin, who is advocating the creation of Israel.

Iran has long used TV to shape public opinion, where newspapers and the Internet are seen as media for the elite.

Thomas Hobbes, der Freiheitsbegriff, angewandt auf den 11. September 2001

The state's control over radio and television is enshrined in the constitution. Ayatollah Khamenei, the supreme leader, is not only head of the armed forces and the judiciary, but also the national broadcast authority. On any given day, the country's seven state-run channels broadcast a mostly drab offering of news, sports, cooking shows, soap operas and religious sermons.

Political propaganda is constantly fed into the mix. Dissidents such as students or reformers are routinely paraded before cameras to read confessions after stints of solitary imprisonment. A slick documentary-style program recently aired long interviews with two Iranian-Americans who were detained on allegations of working to overthrow the regime. The interviews -- in which the pair blandly admitted to meeting with Iranian scholars and dissidents, but not to attempting to topple the government -- were intercut with provocative scenes of demonstrations in Ukraine, where the U.
