For 3 years they have saying "Iran will get the bomb in 6 months" over and over and over. I wonder when will these 6 months end ? and now the author of this article is claiming Iran will get it by next December ! Iran is no threat to US or Israel for that matter, no matter what the Iranian president who has no power over the military says ! the supreme leader of Iran has already declared that they believe in a two-state solution regarding the Israeli-Palestinian dilemma, but heeeyyyy nobody in US media wants to talk about it !!!!! Furthermore I wonder why none of these experts approach the situation from viewpoint of Iran ! if I was at the place of Iranians I would want to have the bomb too: they're surrounded by nuclear states;Russia to the North, Pakistan and India to the East and Israel to the West. Furthermore they're by US bases in Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Iraq and Arab states of Persian Gulf and there is a US nuclear fleet constantly in the Persian Gulf. How would the Americans feel if the Chinese warships were wandering in the Gulf of Mexico ? wouldn't they feel threatened ? As to the talks, EU and US have themselves to blame. Iran stopped its nuclear enrichment for TWO YEARS in 2003 to build trust, in exchange of which EU was supposed provide Iran with peaceful nuclear technology; however they delivered NOTHING !! so rationally Iranians resumed their program ! Furthermore even if Iran goes for the bomb, they will never test it in open daylight for everybody to see; it will be an underground test and since Iran is a country with lots of natural quakes nobody will notice the test. Iran has no intention to publicly declare herself as a nuclear weapon-armed state, because they know that would push Arabs -who are their eternal enemies- to seek nukes too. Iran has legitimate security concerns in Iraq and Afghanistan which shall be met, the same CIA would have if Red army would have attacked Canada and Mexico.
