Drown Me Slowly

Europe wants to give Iran a nuclear reactor.
A senior diplomat familiar with international attempts to dissuade Iran from enrichment said the tentative plans still were being discussed among France, Britain and Germany as part of a possible package to be presented Friday to senior representatives of the five permanent U.N. Security Council members. The diplomat spoke on condition of anonymity because he was divulging confidential information.
What in God's name are they thinking?

Europe thinks that they can buy off the Iranians by giving them a nuclear reactor. The US doesn't think this is a good idea.

That's an understatement of tremendous proportions.

Iran has absolutely no intention of giving up their clandestine nuclear weapons research, parts of which have come to light including the fact that they have centrifuges up and running that will enrich uranium. Sufficient numbers of centrifuges and the time to enrich that uranium will mean that Iran will be able to put together nuclear weapons.
