    Iran & The Bomb: What’s Next?

    Questions about Iran's nuclear program have been swirling for years causing fear in the west that they are secretly preparing to build a nuclear warhead.

    Iran has steadfastly maintained that their nuclear ambitions are only for the purpose of energy production, and that they have no plans to enrich uranium for the production of nuclear weapons.

    However, a new IAEA 25-page report, a decade in the making, says there is credible evidence to make a case that "Iran has carried out activities relevant to the development of a nuclear device."

    This is some of the most damning evidence ever released about Iran's nuclear interest, but Iran has blasted the report, calling it politically motivated by the west, and an excuse to carry out military action against Iran.

    While the report does not claim that Iran has the technology to produce a nuclear weapon yet, it does site evidence that Iran "had been provided with nuclear explosive design information" as well as computer modeling of nuclear detonations.

    On Around the World, Christiane Amanpour speaks with the New York Times' David Sanger to take a deeper look into this report which could have a worldwide impact, effecting not only the United States and Iran, but also putting pressure on Iran's allies China and Russia.

      Yahoo: Puh-freaking-LEASE, stop embedding auto-play video in news pages. It crashes my browser enough with your 8 bazillion poorly coded and animated ads and garbage layout.

      If you want to regain control of your nation and the world, you had better look way past the Tea Party or Occupy Wall Street. There have been dark forces at work in this modern world for several generations now.

      It's going to take far more than a protest to stop anything now.

      We need a change in this country. I understand that some of you might believe that Ron Paul is naive with all of his "life changing" goals. But at least he has goals to help in multiple areas. HE IS THE ONLY presidential candidate willing to TRY to fix the economy and STAY OUT OF OTHER COUNTRIES. Obama has had his chance and so far it has not worked. Why give him more time? Why does he deserve more time? I am sick of the "Texans" running our country. I also do not believe an accused harasser deserves to as well. I am not a fan of ONE GROUP OR ANOTHER(that is like being a sports fan). Like the ideas of the man and the places he wants to take us. Just because they are democrat or republican, does not mean they should get your vote. Use your mind, your heart and your ears when determining the best candidate to RUN our country. I am sick of the same #$%$ year in and year out. It is time for a change and I for one will be voting Ron Paul. I hope others do the same. If you do not agree please state why and your reasons...I do not need to read uneducated nonsense. If you disagree with ANYTHING in my post then please state why and your reasons as well. Once again, I do not need to read uneducated nonsense. :)

      Where is India on this. Massive military with nuclear weapons, and never involved in anything!

      Its amazing! The media, government, and populace don't learn anything from the propaganda used in the Iraq war run up and the war aftermath less than 10 years ago! This country is doomed for financial collapse. It doesn't matter how great a country can be, to many idiots running the show can bring a superpower down from the inside.

      Anyone else feel like we're being prepped for a war that has already been decided by others?? No thanks. Don't let this garbage continue. Wars are good for politicians and financiers, not the actual citizens of either country.

      If the United States attacks Iran there will be a large scale war on our hands. Can the United States afford a new war? A lot more dead troops and billions of dollars will be waisted. Is that what we as a country want?
      We need to mind our own business.

      What if Iran did have a nuclear warhead and the ability to launch it toward Isreal? Think they would? What would happen if they did? Isreal has between 75 and 400,nobody knows for sure,they refuse to allow IAEA to inspect, not only for numbers but for safety and security,they have them on land,ships and submarines. The Iranian government is crazy,as crazy as the Isreali gov. or any other but they are not stupid. Any missle launched is detected as soon as it is fired and confirmed where it came from, any attack on a nation will surely draw a response from them and their allies. The biggest worry is the suitcase,which Isreal also has. So does Russia,USA and China.Sooner or later one is going to show up at a port or cross a border and right now thats our weakness. Theres a different agenda about Iran than whats being told,its clearly obvious,its right in front of your face and everybody ignores it. It has nothing to do with Iran having nuclear missles and attacking Isreal.Our main weakness is the general population of every nation,everyone believes whatever their Gov. tells them,if its in print or on the idiot box its golden,nobody thinks,they want to be told. Every Gov. is playing the same game and its going to be the death of most of us.

      We will invade their country to fight someone elses war. Then we will feed them, give them lots of money, better clothes and shelter, and treat them better than we do our own American Soldier. All of this while they spit in our faces. Huh? Sounds kind of like Afghanistan right next door to the east.

      I have an AWESOME idea. Lets fix America and let all of the people over seas blow each other up. That way we wont have to keep killing troops and blowing tax dollars on them.

      China and Russia dont need to war with the United States. We are doing a great job bankrupting and destroying ourselves. What fools they must think we are.

      WW III began on February 26, 1993. Like many past wars it is slowly gaining speed and casualties. Before the big booms start, the western economies will need to collapse, which is very close. We are growing weaker and our enemies stronger thanks to the idiots in
      Washington. We have sold our future to communist china and the middle eastern oil terrorists. It's only a matter of time now before someone pops a nuke, then, all hell will break loose. Better arm yourselves people. Did you see what happened in New Orleans when the power shut down? The only thing separating us from barbarism is electricity.
      Remember, ole Dooley warned you.

      Hmmm... more war propaganda. I'm a Liberal, but if the media keeps pushing this stµp¡d war agenda, I'm going to campaign for Ron Paul.

      WW III, that's what's next, according to their agenda...
