Another UN attempt at sanctions; another demonstration of
Iranian defiance. The latest round of compromise sanctions squeaked
out by the P5+1 (Russia, China, France, Great Britain, the United
States and Germany) has not even been formally unveiled yet.

reiterating their commitment to nuclear possession at all
costs. As Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has put it,
such "illegal behavior... will not divert the Iranian nation from
its path." The real question, then, is what, exactly, the next
president plans to do about it.
