Nuclear security
Tehran, IRAN:  An Iranian woman checks her mobile walking past an anti-US graffiti depicting the Statue of Liberty on the wall of the former US embassy in Tehran, 10 May 2006. The former US embassy in Tehran could soon see a new chapter in its troubled history, with a top Iranian commander calling for the downtown compound to be turned into a "Great Satan Park". Following Iran's Islamic revolution in 1979 that toppled the US-backed shah, the former US embassy was seized by Islamist students and 52 of its staff were taken hostages for 444 days.
