POTUS demands inspection however, it was more like a request.
President Obama on Friday morning accused Iran of building a secret nuclear facility underground in secret and charged that it has hidden the facility for years from international weapons inspectors.
Obama, joined by British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and French President Nicolas Sarkozy at the opening of the G-20 economic summit in Pittsburgh, demanded weapons inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency be granted immediate access to the facility.
“Iran has the right for peaceful power but the size of the facility is inconsistent with a peaceful program,” Obama said. “Iran is breaking rules that all nations must follows, endangering the world non-nuclear proliferation regime … and the security of the world.”

But they need the uranium to make medical stuff and light up the city at night, right?
Oops, I guess they got confused.
Now, Ahjmadinejad is canceling pressers.
The fist is still clenched…back off US.
Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmedinejad has warned his U.S. counterpart not to press Tehran on new revelations about a uranium enrichment plant. “If I were [President] Obama’s adviser, I would definitely advise him to refrain making this statement because it is definitely a mistake,” Ahmedinejad told TIME in New York on Friday. “It would definitively be a mistake.”…
But he seemed nonplussed by questions about the newly-revealed plant, which TIME informed him that Obama was revealing in Pittsburgh; Ahmadinejad’s response meandered from the defensive to the aggressive. “This does not mean we must inform Mr. Obama’s administration of every facility that we have,” he said. He warned that if Obama brings up the uranium facility, it “simply adds to the list of issues to which the United States owes the Iranian nation an apology over. Rest assured that this will be the case. We do everything transparently.” He added, “I’m not the person who should be giving this advice to Mr. Obama because principally, Mr. Obama’s mistakes work in our favor. But still, we do not want to see a president of a country like the United States of America to make blunders of the sort, to make mistakes of the sort.”
Sounds like he has believes Usama Bin Laden and is willing to work with him and the other despots of the world.
Say you’re sorry BAM and then make everyone else say it too.

Ay further plans to sit across the table with Iran and just have an old fashioned talk?

Turns out that this nuke plant was known about a long time ago. It’s just that the mole’s cover got blown by the Iranians for collecting and reporting intel on the plant.
This story is developing. Israel and Russia have been making deals on the side. It’s hard to tell whether Obama was embarrassed on purpose, however, he is now forced to take a stand.
Netanyahu went so far as to play the Holocaust card at the U.N. in order to force Obama’s hand. For someone who routinely plays the victim card in politics, Obama has little wiggle room on this one.
Obama has no choice but to sprint to the right in order to save himself. This is a game to see who blinks first.

This is a very poor scenario. Obama is so inexperienced and they have played him.
