(AFP) U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said her country has no plan for military action against Iran over its nuclear program. "Obviously, we don't want Iran to become a nuclear weapons power, but we are not planning anything other than going for sanctions," she told Al-Arabiya television on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Admiral Mike Mullen, the chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in Amman on Tuesday: "The priority for President Obama and his administration has been to initiate a dialogue and engagement while at the same time keeping all options on the table. When I say all options are on the table it certainly includes potential military options."
