But what does it matter even if the IAEA vindicates Iran, Israel has ites eyes on removing any country that dares to clamber out of poverty in the region and that is the truth of the matter.
In the same way Scott Ritter and Hans Blix cleared Iraq of WMD's and have been proven correct the same will happen here with the IAEA.

Israel however will push the US to strike against Iran and if this leads to a ground War the only people that will suffer will be the American soliders who will fight yet another imperialist war for a foreign country called Israel.

More will be killed based on lies again peddled by Israel to the United States, more american men and women will lose their children, husbands and wives on the back of another pack of lies.

the irony is that in Afghanistan apart from Kabul the whole country is in the hands of War lords with Islamic Miltancy on the rise and drug production at 1,400% of what it was during the fundamentalist Taliban rule. according to the United Nations.

Iraq is one big disaster and the whole world hates the US accusing the administration of invading a country illegally , arrogance and human rights abuse.
this is the price we are paying, and we are being misled to support all the disasters in the name of patriotism,
I say to accept our countries name being dragged through the dirt for the sake of another country and allowing our children to be killed for lies is not patriotic.

IAEA likely to absolve Iran of responsibility for uranium traces

Iran is poised to notch up an important victory in its dispute with the west over its nuclear programmes after UN experts found that traces of highly enriched uranium collected in the country were probably not of Iranian provenance.

The traces, found two years ago, set alarm bells ringing in the west and at the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna, fuelling fears that Tehran was manufacturing material for nuclear weapons.

IAEA testing has, said diplomats familiar with the analysis, largely vindicated the Iranians, who argued all along that the particles found were imported on equipment obtained from a Pakistan-based nuclear smuggling racket.

The IAEA chief, Mohamed ElBaradei, is expected to absolve Iran of responsibility for the traces when he reports next week to the agency's 35-strong board. Pakistani officials were at the agency in Vienna yesterday to discuss the findings in what sources described as an "exceptional" meeting.

The Iranian victory in the two-year battle of wits with the Americans and Europeans comes as negotiations between Tehran and the EU trio of Britain, France and Germany have hit an impasse.

Iran recently lifted its freeze, agreed with the trio eight months ago, on uranium conversion activities at Isfahan and is now threatening the more serious step of restarting some operations, also suspended, at its underground uranium enrichment complex at Natanz.

In recent weeks Dr ElBaradei has sought to mediate between Tehran and the trio. He is said to be "perplexed at the lack of strategy from western governments". Another official said both sides were now utterly divided by a lack of trust.

The impasse was underlined yesterday when the French government announced the cancellation of EU talks with Iran scheduled for next week.

While Dr ElBaradei has been trying to save the dialogue between Iran and the trio, the Americans are moving to reinvigorate the flagging anti-Iranian campaign. The US is likely to argue that Iran does not need nuclear power since it is an oil-rich state.

The Americans want to take the dispute away from the IAEA to the UN security council, which is empowered to impose sanctions. The Europeans have resisted this for two years, but could now yield to the US given the breakdown in their negotiations with Iran.

The IAEA fears that such a move would make matters worse, destroy its access to Iran, and wreck its chances of getting to the bottom of Tehran's nuclear programme.
