Blair refuses to back Iran strike
TONY Blair has told George Bush that Britain cannot offer military support to any strike on Iran, regardless of whether the move wins the backing of the international community, government sources claimed yesterday.
But, in the midst of international opposition to a pre-emptive strike on Tehran, and Britain's military commitments around the world, the government maintains it cannot contribute to a military assault. "We will support the diplomatic moves, at best," a Foreign Office source told Scotland on Sunday. "But we cannot commit our own resources to a military strike."

The United States should hold direct talks with Iran on its nuclear programme and go slow on sanctions, a leading Republican senator said on Sunday in contrast with the Bush administration stance of limited contacts and increased pressure over Tehran's nuclear programme.
"We need to make more headway diplomatically" before moving towards sanctions, Sen. Richard Lugar, an Indiana Republican, said on the ABC television programme "This Week."
The Bush administration has ruled out direct talks with Tehran
Asked whether there should be direct U.S. talks with Iran on the nuclear program, which Iran says is for peaceful energy production, Lugar said, "I think that would be useful."
Iran was a part of the international "energy picture," he said. "We need to talk about that."
