Iran's leader reaches out to U.S., vows push to resolve nuclear row | Reuters
Good. Negotiation, ever-increasing debilitating sanctions, or God-forbid eventually war. Iran seems to have 3 choices to eventually arrive at making their energy production completely transparent.

This is really Orwellian and against the nature of privacy in America. These surveillance oversteps without probable cause are actual crimes that need to be prosecuted.

Obama Questions Keystone XL Pipeline Job Projections
Obama Questions Keystone XL Pipeline Job Projections
All for a few dozen permanent jobs??? He's getting on point here. Consider the extensive damage first driven by dirty tar sands extraction to Canada, subsequent threats to every adjacent community fully across the U.S. on the proposed pipeline route, and the debilitating damage to our already shaky climate it would produce, it's just a horrible idea. A few dozen permanent U.S. jobs in no way justifies such a destructive, dangerous project through the U.S. "Republicans have said that this would be a big jobs generator," Obama said, according to the newspaper. "There is no evidence that that's true. The most realistic estimates are this might create maybe 2,000 jobs during the construction of the pipeline, which might take a year or two, and then after that we're talking about somewhere between 50 and 100 jobs in an economy of 150 million working people."
