China Says U.N. Sanctions Won't Solve Iranian Nuke Problem

You know, I first read this headline and thought....wouldn't it be grand if the Chinese said that the only way to halt the controversial Iranian nuclear program was to level the nuke facilities there? Hahaha. I know, it was a momentary slip for me. Because of course, the Chinese have stepped in to say that negotiations are the only way to solve the crisis. Here's what the idiot Chinese had to say from the article at Yahoo News:

China said Tuesday that United Nations-imposed sanctions would not resolve the stalemate over Iran's nuclear programme, after the United States raised the prospect of new tough action.

"I don't think sanctions are the way out. The ultimate solution of the Iranian nuclear issue is through negotiations and dialogue," foreign ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu told reporters.
The United States warned Tehran on Monday that it faced possible new UN sanctions over its suspected nuclear programme.

Jiang insisted diplomatic avenues were the best way to solve the international deadlock over Iran's disputed nuclear programmes.
"We hope relevant parties will step up diplomatic efforts and settle the issue peacefully through dialogue and negotiations," Jiang said.
China, as one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, has the power to veto any potential new sanctions.

So, what I would like to ask the Chinese is this. What exactly is there in negotiations that would cause the Iranians to turn around and blow up their own nuclear reactors and stop developing nuclear weapons? What? I realize that China just wants to keep the Iranian oil pipelines flowing to China but in a diplomatic setting here, why doesn't someone just ask the mighty Chinese what in the sam hell they think can be discussed that would cause the Iranians to stop.

It's my view that the only item on a negotiations table that would ever halt nuclear weapons by the Iranians would be that the nation of Israel be destroyed. Is that what the Chinese are proposing? The Iranians have said for over two years now that there is NOTHING that will stop them from the development of nuclear capabilities, yet morons in this world like China and Russia continue to offer this smokescreen, which in the end, gives the Iranians the time it takes to actually finish the job.

Some feel that it is inevitable that the Iranians will accomplish getting nuclear weapons...hell, some are saying they have them already. And if that turns out to be the case, I guess true justice will be served when China is hit by a dozen nuclear Iranian missiles when they clamp down on the islamists in their western provinces. Negotiate that, China.

China says sanctions won't solve Iran nuclear stalemate

The warning followed a new report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the UN's atomic watchdog, that said Iran had not frozen uranium enrichment activities as instructed by the UN.
Such activities can be a key step towards making nuclear weapons.
Besides failing to suspend uranium enrichment, the IAEA noted Iran had in fact installed additional uranium-enriching centrifuges, and was testing more advanced centrifuges as well.
Jiang insisted diplomatic avenues were the best way to solve the international deadlock over Iran's disputed nuclear programmes.
"We hope relevant parties will step up diplomatic efforts and settle the issue peacefully through dialogue and negotiations," Jiang said.
China, as one of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, has the power to veto any potential new sanctions.
Iran, under several sets of US and UN sanctions already, denies charges that its civilian nuclear programme conceals a covert atomic weapons drive.
