If this report is for real, and the Iranians leadership somehow pulls off their first nuclear test, you can bet it shall be their last.

Hmmm... They're gonna test on a holiday? How festive! Perhaps Dubya can send a few of our noise makers to help get the party started!

Hmmm. This story has no details whatsoever. What about credibility?
I have been wondering what the real deal is on Iran's nuke capability is. El Baradei - not exactly known for hawkish assesments of the ME situation - has said twice in recent weeks that Iran could be just months from a nuclear weapon.
Any more info?

Nope, Iran only wants nuclear technology for their energy needs only.

News came out of Israel with some scepticism about Iran's plan and deadline. I would also be surprised, if it could be done that quickly. ...at least another three-four months after that, in my best guess.

Well who really knows... But this Iranian opposition group does have a very big vested interest in over hyping any threats.

If and when Iran gets nuclear bombs, is there still any reason for the U.S. to stay in the U.N.? What possible reason would it serve for the U.S. to stay in the U.N.?

Hopefully the test site isn't Tel Aviv.

I believe Israel can attack with conventional arms preemptively, but a preemptive Israeli nuke strike is not feasible.
I also agree that the US can not attack preemptively due to the political climate. We might be able to get away with "helping" the Israelis with tankers, intell and air space.
As my 80+ year old uncle said 2 years ago after 911 - "its bad, real bad ...."

I think I found what Iran is trying to do,
they are trying to increase their commodity prices for the first day of trading on their Bourse, and are doing so using
March 20 2006
Thursday
29 Esfand
Day of Nationalization of the Oil Industry
This is an economic ploy by the "mad" president of Iran.
