Last Friday the Daily Telegraph reported Teheran has surreptitiously removed a sufficient amount of uranium from its nuclear production facility in Isfahan to produce six nuclear bombs. Given Iran’s already acknowledged uranium enrichment capabilities, the Telegraph’s report indicates that the Islamic Republic is now in the late stages of assembling nuclear bombs.
It would be a [...]

The GPS-guided GBU-39 is said to be one of the most accurate bombs in the world. The 113 kg. bomb has the same penetration capabilities as a normal 900 kg. bomb, although it has only 22.7 kg. of explosives. At just 1.75 meters long, its small size increases the number of bombs an aircraft can [...]

About a dozen are nuclear “rollback” states, ranging from Sweden and Switzerland, which seriously researched the weapon option in the 1950s and 1960s and [...]

The now-defunct ring led by Pakistani scientist Abdul Qadeer Khan is previously known to have sold bomb-related parts to Libya, Iran and North Korea. A draft report by former [...]

Eventually, the Arab/Muslim world concluded that Westernizing was too burdensome and probably impossible. Since joining the West wasn’t in the cards, licking it seemed another option. A new generation began to eye fundamental Islam as a route to Arab/Islamic renaissance. Enter the Ayatollah Khomeini, followed by Osama bin Laden.
Today, Pakistan has the bomb, and the [...]

Imagine this: Ten fighter jets take off from a base in northern Israel, fly over Jordan, Iraq and into Iran to bomb air-defense missile systems, radar stations and nuclear facilities. They then leave Iranian airspace safely without sustaining any enemy fire.
Sounds implausible? If the IAF has its way, the possibility will become realistic in the [...]

UN inspectors were shocked by the recent discovery of an Iranian document describing the process for making the potential core of a nuclear weapon.
Tehran called the allegations of pursuing bomb-making “baseless” and claimed that the intelligence was fabricated. However, the 15-page document appears to be the recipe for the process of machining uranium metal into [...]

John Bolton gets it right as usual. This is not a preemptive attack on Iran, but in response to their meddling in affairs in Iraq and Afghanistan.
