BERLIN (AP) � U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Thursday that the United States, European and Russian diplomats have a common goal of encouraging Iran back to the bargaining table over its disputed nuclear program.
"We reconfirmed we will use available channels and the Security Council to try to achieve that goal," the top U.S. diplomat said. Rice spoke following a breakfast meeting with her counterparts from Germany, Russia and the European Union.

The group reviewed Iran's compliance with a U.N. Security Council demand that it stop enriching uranium, a key step toward producing either nuclear power or a nuclear weapon.

The U.N. nuclear watchdog finalized a report that is to be released Thursday and is expected to formally confirm the Islamic republic's refusal to freeze enrichment.

Officials at the International Atomic Energy Agency said the report � by Mohamed ElBaradei, head of the Vienna-based agency � would say that Iran has expanded enrichment efforts instead of freezing them.

[Iran needs to allow inspectors in, be given some time, but not unlimited time before full sanctions fall on the country. The Gulf states who are upset with Iran could pump extra oil. However, Iran should be given a chance before people go down that path that has bad consequences for all sides.]

how many chances should they be given? I believe theyve been given a few already. Iran is deciding which path this is going down. While I was against the war in Iraq I would 100% support bombing Iran to smitherines.
