Wonderful: Iran Likely to Have a Nuke This Year

Doesn't you feel safe now with a pandering Barack Obama in charge?

God help us.

Iran will have enough enriched uranium to make a single nuclear weapon later this year, the prestigious International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) predicts.

The think tank's Mark Fitzpatrick made the announcement at today's launch of its annual global review of military powers.

"During 2009, Iran will probably reach the point at which it has produced the amount of low-enriched uranium needed to make a nuclear bomb," he said.

"But being able to enrich uranium is not the same as having a nuclear weapon."

However, the survey reports doubts over US Intelligence estimates that Iran halted its work on nuclear weapons six years ago.

This points to Tehran's continued development of long-range ballistic missiles able to reach targets in Israel and beyond.

Of course now if we try and coerce the Iranians into shutting down their program they'll just tell us we can't dictate to them. Thanks, Obama! You've just given our enemies plenty of ammo to use against us.
