    Too bad sanctions rarely work, and usually cause distress on the innocent population, not the power elite of which the sanctions are targeting.

    Iran feelin' the heat of sanctions...
    :buggered:
    As sanctions tighten, Iran gets squeezed
    May 23rd, 2012 - Despite recent assurances by senior officials in Iran that the country will weather sanctions targeting the country's petroleum and financial sectors, the international effort is having a noticeable impact on the Iranian economy. And the situation may well figure into talks scheduled for Wednesday in Baghdad over the Islamic Republic's disputed nuclear program, U.S. officials say.

    You do not realize that Iran does not mind suffering from poverty,low life quality and low health in order to reach the destination of the nuclear warhead.
    When Iran succeeds in its program to attain nuclear facility,the world will become much more helpless than what it is nowadyas.Iran pretends to get a little excited about those futile sanctions to lead a common assumption among experts and diplomats in the west that they are stuck and the most protruding sanction which is supposed to be fully applied in July (I'm not certain) is not genuinely capable of damaging the Iranian financial system and even it may be devastating in some way because Iran would increase the transfer of oil to South America for a little lower cost to cover the financial hole from europe.Iran is not even showing some sort of compromise throughout the both negotiations cylces and making sure the following cycle takes place within over two weeks,the international community doesn't conclude from what's happening that Iran only tries gaining time for their nuclear program and wrongly consider the significance of this issue.I propose two main options that may bring to a complete destruction of this murderous program and here they are : 1.totally paralyze the entire economic system in iran till the regime surrenders,generally there is an urgent need in wiping out the current regime that cruelly executes innocents.When the sanctions come to a point in which Iran has no way back,the concession will be highly rapid.2.Well integrated attack by all of the empires including Israel,It is time to fight not only to terminate the nuclear aspirations but collapse the whole corruped regime that excludes people from free speech,free sex and religious freedom,it is time to abort the islamic revolution and revive the previous regime that was in iran whose relationship with israel was wide (not calling for the destruction of islam but calling for the destruction of the religious complusion).Iran is frequently affording terror affiliates around the globe which are supposed to operate for them in a time of need,in this project of iran,there is a lot of money pouring out for terror destinations instead of the welfare of the habitants.

    Iran is the only country to call for the eradication of a state,it is something that must be well thought among those who are in charge of this issue.My feeling is that the endeavours to dissuade iran from obtaining nuclear material and freely enriching it are too soft and have no real impact and Obama has to get out of the idea to attack on iran at the time of the elections for two important reasons :
    1.The attack on iran will open a regional combat in which the USA will also be involved,the war wouldn't surely raise the sympathy for Obama.
    2.By then,Iran will fortify its nuclear centers and achieve the targeted nuclear facility.

    Hi
    I'm an Iranian man.
    I was come to this page and I was read your Comments.
    So I was think that maybe you should know about what most Iranian think about Sanctions.
    you know
    Iranian's revolution success at 1975.
    after that USA and most of the other country scared from the situation of New Iran.
    New Iran have wanted Freedom , Independence and Above all new kind of Government. (A Government that has created from Islamic Rules.)
    u asking: what problem with that?
    the point is this.... Islam was and is and will the big problem for Colonialism.
    so From then onwards, all of the Diabolic powers wanted to destroy a new way of thinking...
    they starting a War against us... first with a toy names SADDAM Husein from Iraq.(The captives who capt from Iran force were from 24 nations, and Saddam used Lethal gases at this war that he hasn't... and those were made in USA , Germany , France and .... )
    but a secret force came for Help. Iran won that war against all the power of the world.
    so they created a new strategy that kill that secret force... but They can not even be close to their goal.

    the sanctions against Iran has created form the start of our revolution. and that has been more or less during the time until know.
    so People are accustomed to these sanctions
    They continued their way with the power that will continue every day.

    I'm thinking u don't know even a little about Iran and Iranian people.
    so cause I love u all people, I may Upload a film that show 0.01% of Iranian power next time. If your Sanctions let:)

    Do you still have colonialism in Iran? I was not aware of that during any of my visits to Tehran.

    Iran has half its tanker fleet moored at Kharg storing 23 million barrels of oil..

    I would beg the regime to stop any plans for nuclear weapons for the sake of the Iranian people.

    Hey u know our people want nuclear science and energy... not nuclear weapons... because all of us know that it's useless weapon.
    and because of We have democracy in our Government and our Religion don't allow us to create such things, We do not even think about create nuclear weapons.
    And Our goal is to eradicate colonialism in all the world.
    If you come to our country you shouldn't say such thing. but I accept.
    about Nuclear weapons In Iran, I have a Documentary. and I want to upload it for all of you.
    it's created from a Pakistani Student who live In Iran from 2007 to 2012.

    I know that Iran has needed nuclear power since the 1970s, but at this point the world does not believe that Iran isn't developing nukes..

    The situation is very dangerous for everyone, including the Iranian people.

    Yes we do. Whether the Iranian people want nukes is hard to say but your government has a nuclear weapons program and has already enriched huge quantities of uranium to very high levels. Both the quantities and the level of enrichment (20%+) far exceed the requirements for civilian use.

    Can you comment on the topic of this thread though, is it true that Iranian economy is near collapse?

    Iran's economic future never looked grimmer. It currently suffers from a huge deficit, wide-ranging unemployment, a worthless currency, reckless inflation, and young people who only want to flee the isolated state. Many of them have succeeded in doing so.

    Hi!
    Please be more friendly if you all want to be aware of the other friends' POVs.
    If Iran had nukes US could betray every thing at the moment they find anything and they have any sensor to find everything worldwide, don't they?
    Iran does not have nukes, but if someone thinks we are to make them it's another topic to discuss. Up to now based on all the agreements signed Iran wanted to make it clear, pure and simple, that there is nothing to be worried about and our nuclear attempts are all peaceful.
    You want to know the truth my friends? If we signed international agreements and if we invite experts to come to see nuclear sites and everything, there would be remained some questions: Why are only we supervised not to step outline?! And when they cannot find anything illegal they try to make propaganda worldwide? And because we do not have so much international media as they have people think there should be still something dubious about Iran's.
    But no one is to ask why Israel has clearly with no doubt and be proud of having!

    Hello Dear Margot!
    It's my first time in this forum to get an answer and I am really happy because the answer is from an American person since I love your country, as a lot of other Iranians do honestly (You can refer to some surveys)
    What you said is the way of politicians but we should be like people and friendly as the majority of people are. You say! What should we do to take you among all the people who like to make relationship between two countries? (among politicians because people already have relationship)
    Based on what the government signed, we accept any investigation the committee want to accomplish.
    The last but not the least important point is that like any other nation we respect our humanity. My brother! Iran has everything needed inside the country. Believe me sanctions make the life harder for Iranians but we never ignore our initial and the simplest rights. With difficulty we can live, but with being humiliated NO!
    It is an easy way of inviting you to a friendship as I can do best respectfully. Whether to accept or not I like you.
    ata

    Oh dear, you've been misinformed, your government does not cooperate:

    The UN nuclear watchdog and Iran failed Friday to agree a deal allowing greater access to Tehran's contested nuclear programme...The International Atomic Energy Agency had come to the meeting "in a constructive spirit and with the desire and intention of finalising the paper" but Iran had imposed new conditions on a deal, Nackaerts said.

    I have been to Iran many times but not since the 1970s.. I generally like Iranian people...

    Things are not going well.. I tend to blame the Revolutionary Guard, but I am not even sure that's right.

    Dear Borat,
    First I want to mention I am not totally in agreement with the government but for the nuclear issue I think I am.
    When it is not in the government's commitment to deal about this site it is a new agreement. It should not be called 'not cooperate'
    I ask you, why they don't want to assure us of not selling our information as they disclosed the name of nuclear scientists to Israel and they became killed one after another and what your reporting agency did? Almost Silence, Misinformed.

    I am just curious, do people really not understand the difference between not building a nuke just yet and not having a weapons program or they think they are clever and fooling others?

    The article you are quoting states that they are not building a bomb yet. That they are building the infrastructure to build a bomb and enriching huge quantities of uranium to very high levels far beyond the requirements of civilian use is not even disputed. The infrastructure to enrich uranium to weapons grade and build a bomb IS nuclear weapons program.

    The refusal to provide access required by the UN designated monitoring agency is non-cooperation. And what are they hiding anyway? The IAEA does not need to know the identities of the scientists to inspect the sites, the idea that a UN body is selling names to Israel is preposterous and Israel has other means (the Mossad) of finding out the names of these scientists anyway.

    Oh and the assassinations of Iranian nuclear weapons scientists were widely reported in Western media, you've been misinformed on this account as well.

    Yes, Look how it worked in the previous WMD variation in Iraq. We certainly shouldn't try to learn anything from that fiasco. We should again start with sanctions against covert non-existant weaponry and then justify progress to military action.
