As if dozens of jihadis wearing suicide underwear wasn’t enough of a problem for the US and the world, the Israelis remind us today of an even bigger threat about to reach maturation. The Iranians will have the technical capability to build a nuclear weapon within weeks, and will have one completed by 2011, according to Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak:
Iran will possess the technology to build a nuclear bomb by early 2010 and be able to produce one the following year, Israeli media quoted Israel’s defense minister as saying Monday.
Israel’s diplomatic recall and Netanyahu’s warning is meant to send another signal, both to Iran and the international community. Israel will take care of the problem their way if the world doesn’t start taking this seriously. That first bomb has Tel Aviv written on the nose cone, and everyone knows it.
It would seem that Barack Obama and the West has only a few weeks left to head off unilateral Israeli action.
