Iran claims to be enriching uranium for peaceful purposes??????????? The
excerpt below was copied from an article about motor oils; not political at
all. So those of you who are, shall we say of the anti-Bush policy
persuasion, better wake up and smell the roses. Muslims hate us and want ALL
non-muslims dead (notice the lower case since that bogus bunch does not
deserve respect given by use of upper case as in proper names).

(Quote) "Most oil wells throw off a lot of natural gas. In many cases, it's
more expensive to transport this gas to a large city than the gas is worth,
so it's just burned off. For example, Iran burns off enough natural gas each
day to power their entire country, electricity, cars, ships, airplanes, the
whole thing. So the next time you hear Iran's nuclear reactors are purely
for peaceful production of energy, you can wonder like the rest of us why a
country that burns off more than their entire energy needs must spend tens
of billions of dollars developing alternative energy sources. Well, anyway,
natural gas is a chemical looking for a use. All you have to do is
chemically attach these molecules to each other to turn them into quite pure
oil stocks. "

Gee, for a minute there I thought that your message might be political.
I guess that if the Dems nominate someone who once flew over South
Bend, saying somethig good about his/her capability wouldn't be
political and rate an OT, either.

"Not political", huh? Another view:

The construction of nuclear power plants in Iran has been contemplated for
more than 30 years. (Previously with the blessing of the U.S.)
The Shah (placed in power by an Eisenhower CIA led coup) argued that
hydrocarbon resources would be too valuable to burn by the beginning of 21st
century and most of Iran's electricity generation must be supplied from
nuclear power plants by then.

After the Iran-Iraq war at the end of the 1980s, the need for electricity
generation for reconstruction of the war-damaged economy was evident and as
the maximum export of hydrocarbon resources was to be achieved for foreign
exchange requirements, the attention was focused on rebuilding the Bushehr
nuclear power plant.

Today, Iran has a population of more than 65 million and most people are
choking from air pollution. The country produces some 4 million barrels of
oil a day of which about 1.5 million are consumed domestically. Natural gas
production has skyrocketed and almost all of it is consumed domestically and
the share of natural gas of total energy consumption has more than tripled
and a very significant portion of that is used to generate power.
Incidentally, utilization of oil or natural gas for power generation, though
more benign than coal, is not pollution free.

You wanta buy the Brooklyn bridge? If you beleive Iran wants to enrich
uranium for peaceful purposes, I think I could sell the bridge to you.

Predictably, you miss the point. I am merely countering the one-sided
diatribe in the original post. Matters not what I believe, both sides of
every issue need to be presented.

Previous U.S. administrations had no problem with their nookular program
just like previous administrations supported Sadman Insane and OBL. You reap
what you sow.

Don't worry about what others think.
A while back I caught a bit of flack for saying that anyone not able to
present both / all sides of an argument couldn't be trusted to present
one fairly.
I still stand by that.
