Saudis worried Iran nuclear issue headed to 'confrontation'

Confrontation with Iran appears to be a foregone conclusion. Bush already
said a couple months ago that he wouldn't leave office without resolving
the Iran problem. Now I think France might be on board for the spoils.
Iran is not a good place to be right now, for they will certainly suffer
a massive bombardment from the air.

The ingredients are all correct. An uncapitulating, even antagonistic
Iranian gov't.. a US president with the thinking and negotiation skills
of a 6 year old (and followers, worshippers who aren't much better)..
all the neighboring ME states (not the least Israel) very concerned
about the growing power of Iran.. an economic contraction, crisis well
under way.

Wally, I think the fat lady might actually sing this time. This is gonna
be a big one. It's only a matter of a few years before the USA would
reach the financial point of no return. Bush is hastening this by his
reckless policies. I fully expect the dollar to go into a free-fall in
the next year, with an accompanying recession, and followed by
hyper-inflation. I could even see the US Gov't defaulting on its debt.
Oil at $130 per barrel, and no lending going on.. the economy just
sort of stops moving.

Saudi Arabia's foreign minister said here Wednesday that Iran's
standoff with Western powers over its nuclear program is heading
toward a "confrontation."
Saudi Prince Saud al-Faisal met in New York with other Gulf foreign
ministers as well as the chief diplomats of Jordan and Egypt, and US
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on the sidelines of the UN General
Assembly.

"We talked certainly about Iran with the Secretary Rice," Prince Saud
told reporters.

"Definitely what we are seeing is a confrontation in the making," the
prince said.

"And we have pressed in our mutual discussions with the Iranians the
question on them: 'Why such a precipitous move toward confrontation,
what is your intent in this?' And their answer was that they are not
looking for confrontation or building nuclear weapons."

He said Saudi Arabia is "very concerned" about Iran's nuclear program,
which Western powers charge is a cover for building an atomic bomb.
Tehran rejects the charge, saying it only seeks to produce energy.

Prince Saud said Tehran must prove its program is peaceful.

"We hope that, if anything, that this will be settled through
negotiations," he said. "The region is volatile and a conflict in that
region is the most dangerous thing to conceive and therefore we hope
it can be solved diplomatically."
