The Shaheen missile, part of Iran's medium range anti-aircraft air defence system Mersad (Ambush), is seen on its launcher during its unveiling ceremony in Tehran April 11, 2010. Iran will lodge a complaint with the United Nations about what it sees as U.S. President Barack Obama's threat to attack it with nuclear weapons, the foreign ministry said on Sunday.


Workers erect iron fences around the Washington Convention Center in Washington on April 10, 2010 ahead of the Nuclear Security Summit. US President Barack Obama's nuclear security summit will target the 'gravest danger to America' -- plutonium and uranium stocks which extremists could use for full-scale nuclear bombs, officials said. The 47-nation-summit will seek national commitments to secure all nuclear materials within four years and is the biggest such gathering outside the UN on US soil since the 1945 San Francisco summit on forming the United Nations.

1. Did some of them agree to coordinate suits & ties?

If that's the case, the So. African president didn't get the memo. "Jacob, we decided on blue striped ties, not purple."

Obama, Rahm, the So. Korean president and a bearded man in one of the pics are dressed almost identically.

2. Well, ya know .... blue suit ... blue tie .... not exactly risky fashion choices...

.... for politicians.

But you gotta love the hat Mr. Goodluck Jonathan is rocking. Mr. Jonathan also has the honor of having the coolest name of any world leader .... sorry Mr. President.

13. Interesting name.

The men tend to be boring, that's why it's more fun to look at women's clothes. We have so many more choices.

:D

4. lol

Pakistani Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani is wearing an orange tie. :)

[Beacool]

10. He should have checked his emails.

LOL!!!

3. Hillary looks good

I like her hair. And the suit.

[cutlassmama]

5. She doesn't look as tired as she has looked in the past. n/t

[Beacool]

12. It's all the travel.

Jet-lag can be brutal.

;-)

[Beacool]

6. That's one helluva community to organize

It's really a shame a few around here are so quick to jump on some of us when we're critical of a policy or approach that POTUS uses. I think most of us are still pretty impressed with this man and his abilities even when we don't agree about everything he's doing or how long it takes to get it done.

[Pirate Smile]

9. OMG - he is turning into a Global Community Organizer.

:wow:

14. I never liked to sit in the stands at a pro ball game...

.... and listen to the guys who played second string jv criticize the quarterback in question ... I had the rare pleasure of listening to some goofballs yell at Joe Montana one time, telling him all the things he was doing wrong.

For me .. it's the same concept. ;)

7. The leaders of Iran are neither stupid or impotent. Given the present situation: they have a point.

Believe it or not, GAWD's not necessarily on OUR SIDE. :eyes:
