Ok - well our nuts are in a sling right now. Over at the NY times I am reading that "The Obama administration, citing evidence of continued troubles inside Iran’s nuclear program, has persuaded Israel that it would take roughly a year — and perhaps longer — for Iran to complete what one senior official called a “dash” for a nuclear weapon, according to American officials." So we are basically asking Israel from standing down from taking action against this very real threat to their security.
But over at Fox News I see a story that quotes John Bolton, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations during the Bush administration, saying "it's "only a matter of time" before the Bushehr plant creates the plutonium needed to pave the way for weapons production. He's expressed concern that unless Israel strikes Bushehr before fuel is loaded, the radiation from an attack would render that possibility remote."
This is scary and I feel that no amount of negotiation will stop Iran's progress toward nuclear power and ultimately nuclear weapons.
