		<description><![CDATA[Of course it&#039;s a sacred Iranian value. It&#039;s the sacred value to wage unending Jihad against the Kuffar! We can&#039;t take that away from them, not ever. How can you be so insensitive? If their religion tells them to kill us, then who are we to complain? (Sarcasm)]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[None of which will be acknowledged in the NYT.    Wait a bit... 

Woo, they have a bomb now? And ICBMs?   Appeasement time, let&#039;s let them nuke Israel so they don&#039;t nuke us! 

Nobody could possibly have seen that coming, I mean who understands this nucular stuff anyway??

		<description><![CDATA[Iran appears to be following the North Korean path regarding nuclear weapons, something the Times consistently attempts to obfuscate. 



As stated above, DG&#039;s interpretation of this Times article is odd and off base, as if he&#039;d skimmed rather than read it.  An accurate and incisive analysis of how  this article fits (or doesn&#039;t) with other NYT evasions on the topic would be a heck of a lot more valuable than one that falls apart should you actually read the NYT article.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Daniel Greenfield has misrepresented the meaning of this NY Times piece. The Times says, &quot;And for the Iranian leadership, nuclear power has evidently become such an issue.&quot; This clearly means that nuclear power was not formerly such an issue, but it is now. It is unspecified at what point it became such an issue. 

However, Greenfield misrepresents this as follows: &quot;Since time immemorial, Islam has worshiped the nuclear warhead.&quot; Since time immemorial??? Go back and read what the Times actually said.

In addition, the Times defined &quot;sacred values&quot; as follows: &quot;moral imperatives we’re unwilling to compromise on, be they political, religious or personal.&quot; So it is clear that the Times is not claiming that nuclear weapons are part of Islam. 


The Times piece is worth commenting on, but Greenfield was not at his best when he drew these conclusions.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Look, uranium in the ground is about 99.3% U238 and a minute quantity (0.7%) of U235 - that&#039;s the useful stuff. So, you have to enrich the U238 until you get about 3-5% U235. Then you can put that in a LWR (Light Water Reactor) and produce power.
The Iranians are going right past 3-4% all the way to 20% U235. Well, you can use that that for medical isotopes but Iran has enough of this enriched uranium for the entire world. So don&#039;t listen to that nonsense from them,
It takes a  long time to go from less than 1% U235 to 20% U235. It doesn&#039;t take that long to get the 20% to weapons grade uranium @ 80% to 90% and 20% can make a crude device. 
There is nothing sacred about all this. It&#039;s just nuclear physics. The fact is Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD) worked in the Cold War as you had rational players. MAD doesn&#039;t work with our Persian friends as Bernard Lewis says: &quot;To Iran, MAD is an inducement&quot;.
The New York Times is insane and has been for decades. Don&#039;t listen to them. They know nothing.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;They shouldn’t be surprised. Researchers who study “sacred values” — moral imperatives we’re unwilling to compromise on, be they political, religious or personal — have detected just such a pattern of intransigence. When sacred values are in play, studies show, any proposal of economic incentives to make a deal is liable to backfire. And for the Iranian leadership, nuclear power has evidently become such an issue.&quot;



Here again you have leftist circular logic. Intransigence? It must be a sign of sacred values. Ahh, can&#039;t touch sacred values...]]></description>
