A European satellite provide has cut off several Iranian stations from their programming list as a result of earlier sanctions, followed by complaints from Iranian state broadcasters. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Foreign ministers from the 27 EU member countries, meeting in Luxembourg, said Iran was &#8220;acting in flagrant violation of its international obligations&#8221; and was still refusing to cooperate fully with the International Atomic Energy Agency to address international concerns.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Well, they won&#8217;t get much help from the US if we take Joe Biden&#8217;s line in the sand last week during the debate as a policy statement from the Obama Administration. The <a href=\"http:\/\/online.wsj.com\/article\/SB10000872396390443749204578052602951971998.html?mod=WSJ_article_outbrain&#038;obref=obinsite\">Wall Street Journal<\/a> in an article sent to us by Veritas Omnia Vincit wrote this weekend that Joe Biden isn&#8217;t all that worried about Iran&#8217;s uranium enrichment program, but rather their missile program;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;When my friend [Paul Ryan] talks about fissile material, they have to take this highly enriched uranium, get it from 20% up. Then they have to be able to have something to put it in. There is no weapon that the Iranians have at this point.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let&#8217;s all calm down a little bit here,&#8221; Mr. Biden said a few minutes later.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, Iran may have made progress toward enriching enough uranium to sufficient strength to build a bomb in the past four years, but that&#8217;s immaterial. Based on the Vice President&#8217;s intelligence, Iran isn&#8217;t close to getting the trigger mechanism, missiles and all the other things needed to deploy a weapon. So don&#8217;t worry. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I&#8217;d remind Bite-Me that Iran always has a delivery system that can reach Israel &#8211; the other nuclear state in the region and Iran&#8217;s main enemy. But I guess that&#8217;s all regional. A nuclear exchange between those two wouldn&#8217;t have any effect on us, would it? The last time terrorists attacked us they used commercial jets. I guess they don&#8217;t have any commercial jets in Iran, do they, Joe?<\/p>\n<p>So don&#8217;t worry, EU, the Obama\/Biden Administration will have your back, well, once Iran crosses the newest line in the sand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fox News reports the European Union nations have decided that they need to pile on more &hellip; <a title=\"Oh, yeah, that nuclear Iran thing\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=32408\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Oh, yeah, that nuclear Iran thing<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-32408","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barack-obama","category-terror-war"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32408","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32408"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32408\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32408"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32408"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32408"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
