If this is true than why are'nt the oil markets in a tizzy?

BTW, I have learned to take anything from Debka with a 10lb of salt.

I need multiple independent confirmations from a non-Israeli MSM source before I really beieve it.

Agreed. There was a time that Debka wasn't so sensational. Now they've completely jumped the shark.

As far as I can tell, the smallest uranium-235 based explosive weights about 100 pounds.

Iran can only get this far with U2235 separation.

Their impressive missle technology isn't quite up to handling warheads.

Quote:
The “pride-inspiring technicians of IRI Aerospace Org (IAO) successfully launched Iran’s Rasad satellite into earth space Wednesday evening,” according to Fars. Rasad (meaning “observation”) is a small image-gathering satellite that weighs in at a relatively light 15.3 kilograms or roughly 34 lbs. It made its trip up into orbit atop a Safir rocket and is supposed to send back imagery and telemetry data.

The significance of the satellite launch doesn’t so much lie in the demonstration of Iran’s satellite technology, but in showing off the country’s apparent missile prowess. The technology that can launch a satellite into space is also useful for building longer range missiles. It’s that kind of dual-use potential that gets American defense planners’ attention. Fears of an emerging Iranian missile capability have motivated the U.S. to push for a missile shield that could intercept Iranian or North Korean ballistic missiles headed towards Europe.

Launching something into a stable orbit is quite a bit more complicated (and requires more impulse) than slinging a warhead a few hundred miles.

...or just loading a barrel on to the back of a truck and driving it into Tel Aviv...

The following story appears legit as it has been picked up by the wires. Israel claims 6 to 9 months, or fewer.

"Israel's Defense Minister Ehud Barak on CNN" wrote..
Israel: Iran to pass nuclear threshold within year
By Amy TeibelNovember 20th, 2011 @ 11:24am

JERUSALEM (AP) - Israel's defense minister warns that a nuclear-armed Iran will become inevitable in less than a year.

Ehud Barak told CNN in an interview aired Sunday he believes that Iran is widening its nuclear program, and it will become impossible to stop it in "two quarter(s) or three quarter(s)" of a year.

He did not say when he expects Iran to actually possess nuclear weapons.

The International Atomic Energy Agency issued a report this month citing new evidence that Iran is building nuclear warheads.

Israel considers Iran its most dangerous enemy, partly because of its nuclear program.

Barak refused to say whether Israel was planning a military strike on Iran. He said Israel is keeping all options open, and he expects the rest of the international community to do the same.

How is that "corrected" Sean? The article quoted Jewish state. It is the Jewish state. Anyone who claims that there is a difference between Jews and Zionists are just trying to make a socially acceptable excuse for their Jew hatred.

Yonatan,

I've read enough of your previous posts that a 'discussion' with you will do about as good as asking the the US congress to stop spending money.

Good day.
