Iran And Consequences

"The Iranian regime needs to know that if it stays on its present course the international community is prepared to impose meaningful consequences," Cheney said.

"We will not allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon," Cheney said.

From John Bolton: Iran faces "tangible and painful consequences" if it continues its nuclear activities and the United States will use "all tools at our disposal"

Washington is "beefing up defensive measures to cope with the Iranian nuclear threat."

Iran has been engaging in "doublespeak".

Iranian negotiator boasts of fooling Europeans
"When we were negotiating with the Europeans in Tehran we were still installing some of the equipment at the Isfahan site"

Iran vowed on Monday to be a "killing field" for any attackers, responding to a US warning of "painful consequences"

Meanwhile, Iran is sending IEDs into Iraq, and these bombs are killing US troops.

The White House said it expects the Security Council to move against Iran unequivocally.

We'll see.
