Rice demanded a response from the Iranians today

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said on Monday it was time for Iran to give a definitive answer to a major powers' proposal for the Islamic republic to negotiate over curbs on its nuclear programmes.

Rice demanded a response despite the country's nuclear negotiator warning he would not give Iran's final answer on Tuesday to the top EU diplomat at a meeting where the powers hope for a formal reply.

"It is really time to get an authoritative answer to that proposal," Rice said at a joint news conference with Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett.

In early June, major powers offered negotiations, which would include the United States for the first time, if Iran suspended enrichment activity that the West suspects is used in the pursuit of a nuclear bomb. Iran says it only seeks to develop power generation.

3. They are determined to get their confrontation.
Regardless of the growing disaster in Iraq and a real threat from North Korea...they still want to destabilize a non-nuclear Iran and create a conflict there. Why? Because we have a mid-term coming in November.

These criminals need to be held accountable for trying to jumpstart WW3.
