"I believe you have seen where the Iranians did not meet the standard contract agreement concerning nuclear reactor purchases.
Whamo! Yet another reasons the frigen Russkie son of a bitches are up to their eye balls in screwing things up as usual.
GWB should have been screaming at the top of his lungs publically that Putin and crew are the real problem behind the Iranian problems since pre-1979. He is the only POTUS with enough balls to make blanket statements that are not always PC. His predecessors where all wimps.
So much for monitoring their fuel rods. They will find the ways to extract the plutonium as the rods are changed in three or four years. That is, based on things I have read about the type reactor to go on line soon, about the time frame required to change the rods, which could stay in in the core for up to some five years depending on how they control the reaction. And those rods, some 100 of them could yield enough plutonium to build one or two small atomic bombs."
Exactly. According to Benjamin Netanyahu, after March of 2007, Iran has stated they will build 25 nuclear weapons per year. Even if it is half that amount built we will see the first nuclear war by 2012 and likely a domestic nuclear attack much sooner. North Korea is now nuclear and much harder to deal with but we had better deal with them sooner rather then later. In the end, we must tell Russia and China that a nuclear attack by either Iran or North Korea means we launch a counter nuclear attack of the same magnitude against THEM. Saw an article last month on China building underground cities. They definately have a game plan in motion and it ain't good!
