News stories on the latest International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) report suggested new reasons to fear that Iran is closer to a “breakout” capability than ever before, citing a nearly 50% increase in its stockpile of 20% enriched uranium and the installation of hundreds of additional centrifuges at the Fordow enrichment installation. But the supposedly dramatic increase in the stockpile of uranium that could theoretically be used to enrich to weapons grade is based on misleading figures in the Nov. 16 IAEA report. The actual increase in the level of that stockpile appears to be 20%. The coverage of the completion of the installation of 2,800 centrifuges at Fordow, meanwhile, continued the media practice of ignoring the linkage between large numbers of idle centrifuges and future negotiations on the Iranian nuclear program. The latest round of media coverage of the Iran issue again highlights the failure of major news outlets to reflect the complexity and political subtl...

In 2010, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu aimed to provoke Iran into a war with Israel that would eventually drag in the United States. The truth is that Netanyahu and Barak did not order the military to plan a direct, all-out attack on Iran. Their true intention was to trigger aso called chain of events which would create tension and provoke Iran, and eventually could have led to a war that might drag in the United States. Laura Rosen acknowledges recent reports that “Netanyahu was not planning to launch an all-out attack on Iran in 2010,” but rather to provoke Iran into striking first. Think about the context of this. Netanyahu and Barak so desperately craved war that they sought to harass and threaten Iran in order to appear a credible and imminent enough threat that Iran would strike preemptively. And the US – Israel’s one major ally, their primary source of economic and military aid, the only reason the international community hasn’t forced them to st...

Bill McKeever wrote ; Mormon leaders have taught that aeons ago the time came to present a salvation plan for those of God's children who would eventually advance to a mortal state. Two of Elohim's sons, Jehovah (the pre-incarnate Christ) and Lucifer, presented their respective salvation plans for mortal man. According to LDS President Harold B. Lee: "…Lucifer, a son of God in the spirit world before the earth was formed, proposed a plan under which mortals would be saved without glory and honor of God. The plan of our Savior, Jehovah, was to give to each the right to choose for himself the course he would travel in earth life and all was to be done to the honor and glory of God our Heavenly Father" ( Stand Ye In Holy Place s, p.219). When Lucifer's plan was rejected, he rebelled against his brother and father and persuaded a third of God's spirit children to join him. Led by Michael the archangel, the remaining spirit children of God would join i...

BBC has never been one of my favorites; reasons have always been their pathetic anti-Iranianism.   Their lobbying to stop the Broadcasting of Press TV and other competitors in Europe is yet another legitimate reason to distrust this entity .Furthermore, following the recent BBC Pedoscandal we discover a new form of their politics of protectionism with regards to their pathological self-preservation…. Denying it all as long as it gets, and accepting the responsibility only when they have been run over by the facts……... The sad story of Jimmy Savile and how he has been given cover and protection for so many years might finally bring other peoples to the same conclusion of how manipulative, self righteous and untrustworthy the BBC as a news outlet actually is.
