ADVANCE OBAMA - AT 8:38 A.M. ET:  We're still awaiting the president.  AP is moving this story:

PITTSBURGH (AP) -- President Barack Obama and the leaders of France and Britain will demand Friday that Iran open to international inspectors a secret nuclear facility it has tried to hide from the world for years, a senior White House official told The Associated Press.

COMMENT:  It had better be a lot tougher than that.  Inspection is a tiny first step.  We haven't caught a student writing notes on his palm before a test here.  We've caught a nation cheating on nuclear enrichment. 

There must be a stiff tone of resolve.
