Dear Friends,

Iran has not yet responded to a Western proposal over its nuclear program because of deep differences within its regime about what to say. When it does answer, Tehran is likely to dodge a straightforward "yes" or "no" and instead try to force the United States and Europe into further negotiations, a senior lawmaker and analysts said Tuesday.

The offer, presented by European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana during a June 6 visit, provides a range of incentives for Iran to impose a moratorium on uranium enrichment, a process that can produce material for nuclear generators or bombs.

 

But if Iran rejects the deal, President Bush warned Monday, it can expect U.N. Security Council action and progressively stronger political and economic sanctions. The U.S. and Europe are pressing for a quick answer.

 

Powerful conservatives have told the government to reject the proposal. "The package they have presented is a package good for them. It's not good for Iran," said hard-liner Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati in a Friday prayer sermon broadcast nationally. If Iran accepts the package, it has to suspend its uranium enrichment entirely. Such a step would be politically difficult. Since Iran resumed enrichment this year after a three-year suspension, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has repeatedly vowed never to halt it again. The response is expected to come from the Supreme National Security Council, a body that groups politicians, military officers and intelligence figures chosen by supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

 

The day Solana delivered the package, Iran began a new round of tests of its 164 centrifuges for enriching uranium, said Mark Fitzpatrick, an expert on non-proliferation at the International Institute of Strategic Studies in London. "It's very much in Iran's interests to take as much time as it is allowed (to respond) so it can further its enrichment program," Fitzpatrick said.

 

The 164 centrifuges are short of the hundreds or thousands needed to fuel a nuclear reactor program — much less to produce a warhead, which Iran denies is its goal.

Safety Tip                          

 

Summer Safety – Recognizing and Treating Burns

 

Burns can be caused by fire, the sun, chemicals, heated objects or fluids, and electricity. They can be minor problems or life-threatening emergencies. Distinguishing a minor burn from a more serious burn involves determining the degree of damage to the tissues of the body. If you are not sure how serious the burn is,

seek emergency medical help.

 

First-degree burns

Are those in which only the outer layer of skin is burned. The skin is usually red and some swelling and pain may occur. Unless the burn involves large portions of the body, it can be treated at home.

 

Second-degree burns

Are those in which the first layer of skin has been burned through and the second layer of skin is also burned. In these burns, the skin reddens intensely and blisters develop. Severe pain and swelling also occur. If a second-degree burn is no larger than 2 or 3 inches in diameter, it can be treated at home. If the burn covers a larger area, seek medical attention. You may need a tetanus booster.

 

Third-degree burns

Are the most serious and involve all layers of skin. Fat, nerves, muscles, and even bones may be affected. Areas may be charred black or appear a dry white. If nerve damage is substantial, there may be no pain at all. These burns should receive emergency medical attention.

 

Follow these steps when treating minor burns at home:

 

  1. If the skin is not broken, run cool water over the burn for several minutes.
  2. Cover the burn with a sterile bandage or clean cloth.
  3. Take aspirin or acetaminophen to relieve any swelling or pain.

 

Seek emergency treatment immediately for major burns. Until an emergency unit arrives, follow these steps:

 

  1. Remove safely the person from the source of the burn (fire, electrical current, etc.).
  2. If the person is not breathing, begin mouth-to-mouth resuscitation immediately.
  3. Remove all smoldering clothing to stop further burning.
  4. If the person is breathing sufficiently, cover the burned area with a cool, moist, sterile bandage or clean cloth. Do not place any creams, ointments or ice on the burned area or break blisters.

It Happened 25 years ago…

June 7th 1981: Israel bombs Baghdad nuclear reactor

 

The Israelis bombed a French-built nuclear plant near Iraq's capital, Baghdad, saying they believed it was designed to make nuclear weapons. It was the world's first air strike against a nuclear plant. News of the audacious raid did not actually emerge until 24 hours later when Israel made its announcement. Only then did Iraq admit it had happened and express indignation. There were no reported casualties.

 

An undisclosed number of F-15 interceptors and F-16 fighter bombers destroyed the Osirak reactor 18 miles south of Baghdad, on the orders of Prime Minister Menachem Begin. The army command said all Israeli planes returned safely.

 

The 70-megawatt uranium-powered reactor was near completion but had not been stocked with nuclear fuel so there was no danger of a leak, according to sources in the French atomic industry.

 

The Israeli Government acted now because it believed the reactor would be completed shortly - either at the beginning of July or the beginning of September 1981.

 

The Israelis criticized the French and Italians for supplying Iraq with nuclear materials and pledged to defend their territory at all costs. The Osirak reactor was part of a complex that includes a second, smaller reactor - also French-built - and a Soviet-made test reactor already in use.

 

Iraq denied the reactor was destined to produce nuclear weapons but documents seized after the fall of Saddam's regime, indicate atomic atomic weapons were on verge of elaboration.
