From the google news scooper:
"Iran's chief nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani warned here on Sunday that Iran would resume a large-scale uranium enrichment if its nuclear case was referred to the UN Security Council."
Are we meant to assume that if it isn't, they won't? And if so, are we meant to believe this? Surely, no one -- not even Jawge -- could be that dumb. So if we assume that they are going to resume it -- in fact, may well have already started -- are we to allow them to continue, given that we've just tacitly agreed that India should have this capability? Granted, we did not give Pakistan our blessing, but that's hardly going to stop them from trying to achieve it anyway. Is the goal to encourage, or at least not discourage, nuclear parity in the subcontinent?
If so, why? If not, then what is the goal? (Note: I'm being nice. I'm assuming there is one, and moreover one that can be coherently stated.)
