Iran goal: Nuke in first 6 months of 2005
Iranian opposition group NCRI claims in Paris that Iran hopes to develop a nuclear bomb in first half of 2005. Spokesman says Tehran has obtained polonium-210 and beryllium to start chain reaction for nuclear fission, hiding these processes from UN watchdog. Iran is already far advanced on two additional elements for bomb nuclear fuel and delivery system.

Bump!
From, "16 trucks carrying weapons en route from Iran discovered in Iraq - Iran Focus "
"those arrested admitted to being agents of Iran's Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS), and said that lodging had been provided for them in Samara, Balad, Najaf, and Latifiyeh.
The individuals revealed that they work working on behalf of the MOIS in conjunction with Iran's Fajr Forces. During interrogation the Iranian agents also revealed the names of a number of Fajr commanders and MOIS agents whom they worked for."
Good interrogating. Sounds like the Pakistanis.
Time to fish or cut bait, Israel.
BTTT
bttt!
<< Maybe Iran will get a nuke in the first 6 months of 2005. >>
If it is what it takes to ensure that leg of evil's stool is never nuclear armed, I am sure the Nation of Israel will spare it one.
Or, come to that, as many as it takes.

What is the Fajr Forces?
The are planning to have one nuke prior to the presidential election June 17.
I dunno. A year ago I was reading articles saying that "in 6 months Iran will reach the point of no return" nuke-wise. Then last summer Israel was saying that Iran would reach the point of no return by Jan. 2005. Then last fall the Mad Mullahs were demanding a nuke/nukes by last month or the scientists weren't muslims. Now this article says nukes within 6 months. Maybe Iran already has nukes. Maybe Iran will never have nukes. Either some of this reporting is deliberate nonsense or someone's Intelligence Network ain't worth a damn. Maybe a little bit of both, eh?
A wing of the IRGC? Not familiar with them.
My guesses: After studying the power play by North Korea Iran decided to get nukes as soon as possible. The effort was given top priority when Saddam was removed. However, they have had some technical problems with the uranium enrichment process that caused delays of the program.
The Supreme Mad Mullah demanded last year that those problems should be dealt with ASAP. Their present plan is to have at least one nuke by the start of the Iranian year of 1384 starting March 21, 2005.
This will be a big issue in the election and if they will be unable to have a nuke by then, there will be a big infight among the Mad Mullahs. My guess is that the Qods Force will try to get rid of Rafsanjani.
Yeah... That is it!
It could also be that some intelligence groups could be hyping the estimate for when Iran would have a nuclear weapon, thereby encouraging action against Iran sooner than later. Somewhat similar to what Ahmed Chalabi did with Iraq. Although not necessarily the same motives, of course.
But it does warrant repeating the day may come when we have waited too long. After the original Gulf War in 1991, the United States was surprised to learn how far along Saddam was with his WMD programs.
If you think about it, it is difficult to know exactly where Iran is with their nuclear program. We don't have real-time information. Now, if they spun up their centrifuges, we'd know about it. Right now, Iran seems to be doing everything but spinning their centrifuges. They are in a sort of idiotic voluntary agreement not to use the centrifuges. But Iran said that thry will break the agreement when they see fit. Which will probably be in spring or summer 2005, I think.
My greatest fear is that Iran will nuke Baghdad. Of course, Tehran would be nuked hours later, bringing about regime change. The war in Iraq would end up being a disaster, and both countries would be in total chaos. We wouldn't necessarily lose the war on terror right then, but it would be an enormous defeat. Even Bush might pull what American forces remained out of Iraq. Let's hope we don't have to find out what Bush would do.
Where did you get this theory from? lol
