18 X-55 strategic cruise missiles, also known as Kh-55, had been “exported” - 12 to Iran and 6 to China in 2001.
Timmerman says the 12 Kh-55 missiles were sold to Iran between 1999-2001.
...the missiles had been sold without nuclear warheads.
Apparently. But Iran already has the technology and capability to make their own and marry them onto the missile.
The X-55 has a ranged of 3,000 km and is capable of carrying 200 kiloton nuclear warheads.
Right. The ones sold to Iran are designed for that range and carry a 500Kg warhead, which could be nuclear, HE, PETN, or biological. Ominously, they can also be fired from ships, land based vehicles, or aircraft. Timmerman's source (a Revolutionary Guards Colonel) says Iran intends to use them in the ground-to-ground mode, not from aircraft.
Timmerman also says it is extremely likely there is an underground missile site 50 Km south of Natanz which houses operational Shahab-3 missiles and has 15 actual nuclear warheads. This is just one of numerous underground facilities Iran has. Timmerman says this one site at Natanz is confirmed by several US intel agencies, one foreign intel agency and his own Iranian sources that deep construction has occured and hidden at this site.
A nuclear war is about to erupt and our public is practically unaware of it.
thanx!
"A nuclear war is about to erupt and our public is practically unaware of it."
You're right that public on awareness at that point is ridiculous. But I would change your statement to say that a nuclear war may erupt. For one thing, a successful preemptive Israeli strike would not be a "nuclear war" if it did not use nuclear weapons. It is possible that the Israelis could succeed with a non-nuclear strike.
