Europe and the US have expressed their willingness to return to talks with Iran over its controversial nuclear program. But despite that, the EU is seemingly still set to approve an embargo on Iranian oil. France even says the time to avoid military intervention is running out. As for the US, this week it strengthened its presence in the region by sending a second aircraft carrier to the Arabian sea. It's reportedly planning to sail through the Strait of Hormuz which Iran has threatened to block in response to sanctions. The Strait is a strategic waterway which the majority of oil exports from the Gulf to the West pass through.

The US Navy has rescued 13 Iranian fishermen being held by pirates in the Arabian Sea, the Pentagon says. The 13 were rescued on Thursday after a distress call was received from an Iranian fishing vessel which had been boarded by pirates over a month ago. Fifteen suspected pirates were detained and are being held by the US Navy. The Iranians had been kept in harsh conditions and are thought to have been forced to assist the pirates in their operations, according to the Pentagon. 'Kindness and respect' The freed hostages are now on their way back home, the US Navy said. The hostages "had been through a lot", said Navy Criminal Investigative Service agent Josh Schminky. "We went out of our way to treat the fishing crew with kindness and respect," he said. The captain of the Al Molai, a fishing dhow, "expressed his sincere gratitude that we came to assist them. He was afraid that without our help, they could have been there for months," he added. ########################### In other News: Beijing News reported on the completely dried up Xiangjiang River in the central city of Changsha, where residents have started to grow vegetables on the riverbed.

The European Union has now jumped on the sanctions bandwagon. The EU joins the US and Canada in sanctions against Iran for allegedly pursuing nuclear weapons. The countries involved in the sanctions hope Iran changes its mind on the alleged enrichment program, but many feel this is a flawed strategy because the IAEA report doesn't show concrete evidence that Iran is enriching uranium for weapons, and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta has echoed the report and declared Iran is not armed.

A US aircraft carrier entered a zone near the Strait of Hormuz being used by the Iranian navy for wargames. The Iranian aircraft took video and photos of the US vessel. The US aircraft carrier was believed to be the USS John C. Stennis, one of the US navy's biggest warships. US officials announced Wednesday that the ship and its accompanying battle group moved through the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow stretch at the entrance to the Gulf that is the world's most important check point for oil shipments. After warnings from the Iranian government and navy this week that Iran could close the strait if threatened by further Western sanctions, the US Defense Department warned Wednesday that such actions "will not be tolerated." The United States maintains a navy presence in the Gulf in large part to ensure oil traffic there is unhindered.

A spokesperson for the Fifth Fleet, based in Bahrain, said the free flow of goods and services through the channel was vital to regional and global prosperity. About 40 percent of the world's oil-tanker trade goes through the Strait of Hormuz, which links the numerous oil producing countries of the Gulf to the outside world.

The aircraft, an Airbus A300B2-203 operated by Iran Air, was flying from Bandar Abbas, Iran, to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, over Iran's territorial waters in the Persian Gulf on its usual flight path when it was destroyed by the US Navy's guided missile cruiser USS Vincennes, killing all 290 passengers and crew aboard, including 65 children, ranking it twelfth among the deadliest disasters in aviation history.

Vincennes entered into Iranian territorial waters after sending one of its helicopters to buzz Iranian speedboats located inside Iranian waters, IR655 was within Iranian airspace at the time it was shot down.

That report contained important step by step instructions on how the United States could become embroiled in World War II by setting up a false flag operation for the Japanese to attack the US Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor. The McCollum Report specifically called for the removal of all fast and modern US ships from Pearl Harbor, and for the placement of ancient and outdated World War One vintage Battleships as bait for the Japanese to attack. When the Japanese were successfully baited into attacking Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941, they destroyed these old and basically scrapheap Battleships, while the modern ships including the entire US Pacific Fleet carrier forces were "conveniently" out to sea....The US Government got what they wanted, at the cost of thousands of innocent lives, and FDR got America into World War II.

On Wednesday Iran proceeded loading fuel rods into their Research Reactor. The enrichment program has received worldwide criticism due to fears that Iran could potentially use this program to develop nuclear weapons. Also Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal received an ultimatum from Iran. They requested the four countries to continue their long-term oil export contracts or be scraped completely.
