“USA Today Iran could produce enough weapons-grade uranium to build a nuclear bomb in as little as a month, according to a new estimate by one of the USA’s top nuclear experts.” 11:21 a.m. EDT October 25, 2013
Washington Post reports Israeli leaders denounced the interim Iranian nuclear pact signed by the United States and five world powers as a historic mistake that does little to reverse Iran’s nuclear ambitions and instead makes the world a more dangerous place.
Israeli officials stressed that they would spend the next six months – the time frame for the interim agreement – seeking to push their friends and especially the White House to reach a deal with Iran that not only curbs Iran’s nuclear ambitions but dismantles their program
Officials say that means a final comprehensive deal that would require Iran to dismantle its centrifuges, remove its enriched uranium and the decommission of its heavy water reactor in Arak, among other things, in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stressed Sunday that Israel was not a party to the talks that ended with a deal in Geneva early this morning and therefore was not bound by the agreement that provides for the temporary, limited lifting of economic sanctions against Iran in exchange for Iran halting or scaling back parts of its nuclear infrastructure.
“What was achieved last night in Geneva is not a historic agreement, but a historic mistake,” said Netanyahu in remarks before his weekly cabinet meeting on Sunday morning.
“Today the world has become a much more dangerous place because the most dangerous regime in the world has taken a significant step toward attaining the most dangerous weapon in the world,” the prime minister said.

This deal notwithstanding, a week ago it was reported that Israel and Saudi Arabia wereworking on a plan to militarily strike on Iran.: I find that very interesting considering that about a month ago SaudiArabia broke diplomatic relations with the United States allegedly over the U.S. response in Syria.: But, what it that’s not the real reason?: Saudi Arabia fears a nuclear Iran as much as Israel because they know Iran wants to be the dominant power in the region.: : : : :
Mind you none of the U.S. press sources are connecting the dots the way I am.: But, I think the dots are easily to connect.:
