At the moment they believe the only way they can do this is through nuclear weapons.<BR/><BR/>Regarding the nuclear weapons issue , they are not as advance as they claim to be. Even if they were as far along the programme as they say they are, it would still take a whole year of all the centrifuges working 24hrs a day, with no stoppages, in order to create a bomb and this is highly unlikely to happen. the equipment they are using is old, their scientists not as good as they claim them to be, and besides, there are still issues with undelivered payments to the Russians, their suppliers, that are a cause of delay and argument.<BR/><BR/>If however a change from within Iran can occur, and this is not an impossibility as Ahmedinajad is still open to electons and due to his lack of efforts to help Iran's domestic issues there are plenty who would like to see him gone, then the nuclear track could be put on hold in favour of other ways to achieve their real goal.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009004.post-86402515771443900022008-07-29T04:04:00.000-07:002008-07-29T04:04:00.000-07:00I want to remind you that there is no need for a r...I want to remind you that there is no need for a rural invasion in order to destruct Iran's nuke facilities neither to attack government and Islamic party's institutions. The US and Israel, together or alone, can do these their own ways.Abe Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15744009755391614552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009004.post-24954144182058627672008-07-28T07:24:00.000-07:002008-07-28T07:24:00.000-07:00I wish I had an answer.

The otherwise excellent piece refers to a wish to wipe Iran off the map, when we know Ahmedinazad et al mean Israel.wondererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17941070946447575458noreply@blogger.com
