I've Been Thinking:

Russia and Iran.

Russia is all set to deliver a first shipment of nuclear fission fuel to the new/old nuclear reactor situated in Busheur, Iran.
The plant was originally built by Germany almost thirty years ago.
According to Asadollah Saboury, an official Iranian nuclear spokesman, the plant is 84% complete and will receive the material in a few months.
Iran has another 20 similar nuclear plants under construction.

I know it is hard to pressure Iran to stop their nuclear production.
But what about Russia?

More pressure must be brought upon Russia to stop this irresponsible selfish behavior. Much more pressure.
Russia just signed a nuclear trade agreement with Iran. They assert that the contract will protect the world from any danger that may arise from nukes in the hands of Iran.

This is just plain wrong. We must put a stop to it.
