Iran: We're Really, Really, Really Never Going To Give Up Our Nukes Program. Really.

Remember how we pedantically said that no amount of incentives can get Iran to stop nuclearizing because there's nothing that they want more than nuclear weapons? And then remember how negotiations went on for two years after we wrote that because foreign policy sophisticates really believed that Iran's statements to the same effect were just complicated "signals" that didn't mean that at all? And remember how it turned out that the mullahs really meant what they said? Which is right now:
Iran won't consider any proposals in talks with the West that would require it to stop enriching uranium, said the country's foreign minister Sunday. "No incentive weighs equally with the rights of Iranian nation," said Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini. He also told reporters in Teheran that uranium enrichment is an "indisputable right" for Iran. Last week, the US and other world powers offered Iran a package of incentives in an attempt to lure Teheran back into negotiations over its disputed nuclear program.
Hey, we don't mean to let the cat out of the bag on this one, but - they're committed to getting nukes.
