Title |
Iran nuclear progress
| |
Summary |
The pressure the United States and the West is bringing to bear on Iran to keep it from acquiring nuclear weapons is over. Not only does the Islamic Republic already have nuclear weapons from the old Soviet Union, but it has enough uranium for more. What’s worse, it has a delivery system. The West for nearly a decade has worried about Iran’s uranium advances, believing Iran is working on a nuclear bomb, though the government maintains its uranium is only for peaceful purposes.

Analysis |
The rest of the world does not want Iran to have nuclear bombs for obvious reasons. If Iran has nuclear bombs they have a new and better position in the world, pertaining to wars. With their new war heads they can make demands with threats o back it up.
