Your world at risk. How the impossible becomes the inevitable.
Iran has passed a crucial nuclear threshold, weapons inspectors have warned, and could now go on to arm an atomic missile with relative ease.
A report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said Iranian nuclear scientists had made at least 22 kilograms of enriched uranium at least 20 per [...]

Israeli Brig. Gen. (res.) Oded Tira, former IDF artillery chief, has the unmitigated gall and impudence to urge that Israel attack Iran just before the Congressional mid-term elections when Pres. Obama’s hands will be tied in terms of any punishment he can mete out for the country’s misbehavior. Here’s a little taste of what [...]
One should dismiss talk of attacking Iran. The Americans won’t do it, and neither will Israel. It’s clearly psychological warfare aimed at stressing Iran. However, it’s not working.

But for Iran, Bushehr is a source of great national pride: the culmination of 36 years’ determination to get the reactor completed, come what may. And rather than suspend its own suspect uranium-enrichment efforts (the stuff can be used for power generation or, with further enrichment, abused for bomb-making), Iran insists it will press ahead [...]
