"They're increasing their capabilities," U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad
said. "Not only have the number of centrifuges increased, but they're working on
a second-generation, if you like, a more capable centrifuge.
"Things are getting worse in terms of the enrichment part."
Britain and France introduced a council resolution on Thursday — with support from the United States, Russia, China and Germany — to expand and toughen travel bans and the freezing of assets
for more Iranian officials linked to the nuclear effort.
If I was Iran I would shut down their enrichment program for retooling or something until October and see if they can play Obama or not. If it looks like McCain is going to win then try to provoke a response out of a lame-duck Bush by starting the thing up again in earnest. If the US rattles the saber then there might be a nice anti-war backlash that could slide Obama into the presidency. I think it comes down to who Iran can play better Obama or McCain.
