Documents linking Iran to nuclear weapons push may have been fabricated

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has obtained evidence suggesting that documents which have been described as technical studies for a secret Iranian nuclear weapons-related research program may have been fabricated.

Israel gave serious thought this spring to launching a military strike on Iran's nuclear sites but was told by President George W Bush that he would not support it and did not expect to revise that view for the rest of his presidency, senior European diplomatic sources have told the Guardian.

The answer was more like, HELL NO! After Iraq and Afghanistan, you couldn't melt the US down and pour it on another Islamic country...

After obtaining his Ph.D. in nuclear reactor physics from Ecole Polytechnique of Lausanne in 1963, he was appointed head of the Reactor Shieding Groupe at the Federal Institute for Reactor Research in Switzerland. Etemad returned to Iran in 1965 and became a nuclear advisor to the Iranian government. He was the president of the Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran (AEOI) between 1974 and 1978.

A.Q. Khan "should be questioned about Iran"

"Khan may be released from house arrest. And we may never get to the bottom of this," Albright said. "So I think it's very important that we start to put pressure on the governments involved in this to find a way to get to the bottom of it."

I figured it would only be a matter of time for them to try to somehow tie Iran to A.Q. Khan.

Iran demands Security Council action on Israel threat

"Such a dangerous threat against a sovereign state and a member of the United Nations constitutes a manifest violation of international law and contravenes the most fundamental principles of the Charter of the United Nations, and, thus, requires a resolute and clear response on the part of the United Nations, particularly the Security Council," Khazaee's letter to Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, dated June 6, said.
