Iran One Month Away From Nuclear Breakout
[quote]Iran could produce enough weapons-grade uranium to build a nuclear bomb in as little as a month, according to a new estimate by one of the USA's top nuclear experts.
The new assessment comes as the White House invited Senate staffers to a briefing on negotiations with Iran as it is trying to persuade Congress not to go ahead with a bill to stiffen sanctions against Iran.
"Shortening breakout times have implications for any negotiation with Iran," stated the report by the Institute for Science and International Security. "An essential finding is that they are currently too short and shortening further."[/quote]
Essentially, this means a short-term is harder to achieve given Iran's progress on their nuclear program.
Arguably, the only way to curb their advancements (to an extent) is to impose new rounds of sanctions; however, [url=http://stream.wsj.com/story/latest-headlines/SS-2-63399/SS-2-365128/]the White House is lobbying Congress to refrain from doing so[/url], stating "diplomatic efforts need more time".
Your thoughts on the new report? Your thoughts on the upcoming new rounds of talks with Iran? Your thoughts on the Iranian nuclear program in general?

4 回覆We can't predict Next week's weather and you're saying there will be nuculear fallout in over a month?
-
3 回覆What happen to Iran co-operating with whoever it was to do whatever is was with their nuclear program?

2 回覆Good for them. They need to show the US that they won't be bullied by the US media's lies and our corrupt government's sanctions. The US government seems to forget who the only country to ever use nuclear weapons on other people is.

1 回覆I don't think they're any different then North Korea, they don't have the balls to nuke anybody.

5 回覆I still doubt it's the threat it's made out to be. It's Iran's new toy. They're basically just saying to piss off [i]with[/i] the sanctions. I still don't believe that it's to pose a significant threat to Israel, since the US would not hesitate to "act" upon such a threat. And the Iranians will know this. I think the same of the North Korean arsenal. They're significantly more likely to deploy their warheads and chance that it's not sufficient to warrant nuclear retaliation, but it's probably a measure to have them taken more seriously and try and goad into the [i]lifting[/i] of sanctions. Imposing further sanctions would only bring rhetoric that either country would be [i]willing[/i] to hold countries to threat or ransom.

1 回覆Israel is fully capable of bombing Iran's nuclear facilities if they really felt in danger. I'd say once it crosses that line, the United States can step in depending upon the response from Iran and the rest of the world.
