UN resolutions...one of my favorite topics. Well, if Iraq is any barometer for how the sanctions will be enforced, Iran will have no problems completing their bomb. The part I love about the resolution is that the only thing it accomplishes is telling UN member nations not to deal nuclear technology (basically the G8) and not to allow their citizens to sell nuclear technology (pakistan and india) to Iran. China knows it had better not directly deal with Iran, because it has been desiring a more favorable position in world politics. However, could N. Korea sell some technology to Iran. You bet they could!

If you want to read the actual resolution itself, click the link above. The way I read this is...
We cannot actually stop them, but if one of the member states provides the materials/technology necessary to finish a bomb, they are the ones that will pay. However, when I don't think the penalty will be THAT severe reading this resolution.

There was actually a resolution on how to make resolutions work. Obviously, they too see the ineffectiveness of nearly all UN resolutions.

Has anyone else noticed that the US seems to be "tweaking" Iran? I honestly feel that nearly every week is another jab into the hornet's nest. What is going on here?

| WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush's warnings to Iran and Syria to not interfere in Iraq and the arrest of six Iranians in Iraq by U.S. troops raised eyebrows Thursday on Capitol Hill, where senators warned Bush against widening the nearly four-year-old war. Sen. Joseph Biden, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, warned Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice that Bush did not have the authority to send U.S. troops on cross-border raids. "I believe the present authorization granted the president to use force in Iraq does not cover that, and he does need congressional authority to do that," Biden, D-Delaware, said during a Thursday hearing on Iraq. "I just want to set that marker." |

| US in a silent campaign to shut Tehran's oil taps Arab Times - 09 January, 2007 The United States is quietly gaining ground in little-publicized attempts to block international cooperation with Iran in developing its oil fields, The Los Angeles Times reported on its website Saturday. Citing unnamed analysts, the newspaper said the US campaign to dry up financing for oil and natural gas development poses a threat to Iran's ability to continue exporting oil over the next two decades. The campaign comes at a moment of unique vulnerability for Iran's oil industry, which also faces challenges from rising domestic energy consumption, international isolation, a populist spending spree by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and trouble closing contracts with foreign oil companies, the report said. |

| "Around 5.00 a.m., after disarming the guards they (U.S. troops) broke into the office, without giving any explanation and arrested five employees," the official IRNA news agency reported, adding that documents and computers were seized. |

I think the thing I find most interesting is the silence from around the globe to these actions. They are in accordance to the resolution that was written against Iran and I am sure that say France, Germany, China and Russia were made aware of these pending actions, but silence. Actually, in reading the resolution, I totally see where these actions were written in, but not specifically spelled out.
Again, why does it seem like when the resolutions are written, only a very small group of countries help enforce them? Why can't the UN step up and campion these efforts that their resolutions/sanctions require?
