Sum of all fears: Is Iran already in possession of a bomb?

January 16, 2012 – IRAN – Maybe it’s a surprise to the “world’ but not to this writer, claims WHTC blog. I have learned to take what the mainstream liberal media says with a grain of salt. The fact of the matter is we have NO IDEA how close Iran is to having a nuclear bomb, but I would venture to say that they already possess one, but realize that having one bomb does NOT a nuclear power make! So I believe that they are building up a surplus in preparation for war with…whomever. A report that Iran is about a year away from having the capability to build a nuclear bomb may be too optimistic, contended John Bolton, former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. “I worry the publicly available information is giving only a very small picture and that Iran is actually even much further along,” Bolton said today in a radio interview. Bolton was on “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” on New York’s WABC Radio. The former ambassador was asked about a statement from a former head of U.N. nuclear inspections claiming Iran is now just a year or so away from having enough enriched uranium to assemble a nuclear bomb. Olli Heinonen wrote in an article published earlier this week that Iran made this advancement after switching production of its higher-grade enriched uranium to a new, underground site. “So they’ve got more work to do, but they are already well on their way,” he said. Reacting to the one-year timeline, Bolton stated, “I think it can be even less than that.” –WHTC 

Spy War already started: Iranian state television said on Saturday Tehran had evidence Washington was behind the latest assassination of one of its nuclear scientists. In the fifth attack of its kind in two years, a magnetic bomb was attached to the door of 32-year-old Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan’s car during the Wednesday morning rush-hour in the capital. His driver was also killed. The United States has denied involvement in the killing and condemned it. Israel has declined to comment. “We have reliable documents and evidence that this terrorist act was planned, guided and supported by the CIA,” the Iranian foreign ministry said in a letter handed to the Swiss ambassador in Tehran, state TV reported. “The documents clearly show that this terrorist act was carried out with the direct involvement of CIA-linked agents.” The Swiss Embassy has represented U.S. interests in Iran since Tehran and Washington cut diplomatic ties shortly after the 1979 Islamic revolution. State TV said a “letter of condemnation” had also been sent to the British government, saying the killing of Iranian nuclear scientists had “started exactly after the British official John Sawers declared the beginning of intelligence operations against Iran.” In 2010, chief of the British Secret Intelligence Service Sawers said one of the agency’s roles was to investigate efforts by states to build nuclear weapons in violation of their international legal obligations and identify ways to slow down their access to vital materials and technology. Tehran has urged the U.N. Security Council and Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to condemn the latest killing, which Tehran says is aimed at undermining its nuclear work, which the West and Israel say is aimed at building bombs. Tehran says its nuclear program is purely civilian. –Reuters

“It is not beyond the realm of possibility that Iran may have already purchased a nuclear device from North Korea or on the black market as an insurance policy to safeguard the completion of its nuclear-weapons program inside the country.” –The Extinction Protocol, page 77
