Israel has until the weekend to launch a military strike on Iran’s first nuclear plant before the humanitarian risk of an attack becomes too great, former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton said Tuesday.
A Russian company is expected to help Iran start loading nuclear fuel into its plant on Saturday, after which an attack on the Bushehr reactor could trigger harmful radiation, which Israel wants to avoid, Bolton said. So unless the Israelis act immediately to shut down the facility, it will be too late.
“Once it’s close to the reactor … the risk is when the reactor is attacked, there will be a release of radiation into the air,” Bolton told FoxNews.com. “It’s most unlikely that they would act militarily after fuel rods are loaded.”
Earlier Tuesday, Bolton told Fox Business Network the Israelis will have to move in the “next eight days” if they want to attack the Bushehr facility — a reference to the window between when the start-up was announced last week and the loading date. Bolton said Tuesday that the date has fluctuated, but he described the start-up as the ultimate deadline.

#36 I wish…but the prediction is they will arm Hamas with a nuke…against Israel, and us.
The Apparatchiks in Congress would not retaliate as there would be doubt who is responsible.
#35 Is this special Olympics Bobo talking, or Uncle Dave?
Inquiring minds want to know
Dear Eds:
Given the number of times “I” have been called a troll, and given the acknowledged extreme position I take on the existenctial threat of Sharia Law invading the USA, I’ve dismissed claims of trollery as mere comment that a post is not favored.
But you opened my eyes and made a good call at #8. My claims may be considered extreme but I back them up with some reasoning/facts that can be disagreed with or not. Not so with the troll you identified.
I’ve been reading right past the posts from Alfred1 as being “nonsense.” So we both are identifying a posting style that is not worth reading and one that devolves the thread into personality contests and name calling.
Thank you. I think a few warnings followed by a short time ban is appropriate for all deemed offenders of the sensitivities of the Eds. I don’t think unnoticed or life bans is ever appropriate. Capital punishment doesn’t teach anyone anything.
Alfred: maintain the cause, but engage reality.
You loons spammed obscenities with different user names so I couldn’t respond…
Then the tolls of this board banned me.
But now that your god Obama has proved himself to be such a loser…are you still walking on air…fainting at his speeches?
I doubt it.
So you pathetic losers are still here, blathering to each other your pathetic theories on life…
I’m just happy to comment on that once in a while.
“When was the last time that Iran attacked/invaded another country?” /// And this is “relevant” how? Legally, the take over of the US Embassy in 1973 (?) was. Iraq/Iran was back and forth and they did not initiate the war-perhaps not close enough?
Caught the news analysis last week. Someone said there has been an effective takeover of the theology driven Iranian Government by the Secret Police/Special Forces element of that government. Its a “secret” force, so the evidence of this will be slow to come out for the rest of us.
Yes, its difficult: Iran has never attacked anyone since they went up against the Spartans with their straw shields. But they regularly state a desire to “wipe Israel from the face of the earth” and they have a program to build nuke bombs. They shoot their own citizens during protests and claim there are no gays in their country.
Maybe the most telling “fact” is that other Israel hating Arab Muslims countries are actively working with Israel because they are afraid of the crazy fascists in Iran?
We can all only hope that Israel acts in its own self interest and takes Iran out. Having the balls to protect its own liberty. A lesson in leadership for us all.
#36 Maybe the most telling “fact” is that other Israel hating Arab Muslims countries are actively working with Israel because they are afraid of the crazy fascists in Iran
The Sunni believe the Shia capable of anything, including nuclear destruction.
Where is the religion of peace Bush talked about?
Laser: Bush was willing to Kiss his Arab Oil Masters on the lips ((just face?)) in public. Praising their religion would be a matter of course, just as Obama has done.
the confusion regarding FREEDOM and religion, political correctness and maintain diplomatic relations, and a general appeasement of international bullies plots the general death spiral of Western Culture.
another news analysis item from last week: the distinction between (belligerent) Arab Muslims and (peaceful) Indonesian Muslims is showing homogenization as the more militant factions are becoming more bumptious. Yep–talk about the love of Islam when your numbers are small, then demand obedience when you are in a position to do so.
Iran is a good example: going from Western Democratic influence to reversion to theocratic repressive control. TURKEY IS DOING IT NOW!
But its a religion of peace because they tell us so.
Silly Hoomans.
#9 You mean the government spokesperson that said contractors in Afghanistan are ok? I agree, a bushy lackey. What a change!
Thread not worth reading.
I apologize to any offended by my remarks, I repent and intend to do better in the future.
Sometimes, not always, sometimes living on the opposite side of the planet has it’s advantages.
The apprentice troll is one who has not yet achieved mastery of trollcraft, and lacks the habits of stealth that delay the identification of a master troll. Thus, the apprentice troll will often let her mask slip in the most inopportune way.
Odd little thread.
Started about a nutjob little bugger ahmadinejad and devolved into a shouting match about Alfred1′s sanity.
I found this quite amusing. Many of the posters condemning Alfred1 are themselves deeply disturbed.
I have been casually examining the bloggers on this post and concluded nearly half the regular posters on this blog have significant signs of adult mental illness.
It’s entertaining to drop in every once in a while and see how the test subjects are doing.
#54 Hence my apology, I realized the insanity had infected me. I do intend to treat arguments, not people.
I don’t think Iran should be attacked. Nuclear power is necessary to keep CO2 emission in check. Destroying the plant will probably lead to more CO2 emissions.
Already Obama has reversed the Bush trend of flat to lower US emissions of CO2. Can we at least try to control the Middle East emissions?
#55 Hence my apology, I realized the insanity had infected me. I do intend to treat arguments, not people.
OK, well let’s see when you realized your insanity.

Evidently our Apologist in Chief Obama failed in his mission. In spite of our spending millions to refurbish Mosques, while we have citizens sleeping in tent cities, and his support for Mosque Triumphant at Ground Zero, it seems Mr. Aminornutjob will get his nukes.
It is said their sect of Islam wants to bring about total war, to compel their version of the Messiah to arrive…
So I don’t see how Israel has a choice, so perhaps Bolton is right…we shall see.

Your right, they are a peace loving nation. They only threaten conflagration of Israel daily to keep the peace.
They don’t really believe their religion world war must begin for the Iman M. to arrive.
Their daily proclamations they want the end, academic discussion only.
“They come in peace.”

Ad hominem. He’s an expert on the subject. We will see if he’s right.
I think our fearless President should suspend for moment his lazer like focus on jobs, and go on another apology tour, touting his support for Mosque Triumphant at Ground Zero.
Surely that will defuse the situation.
He can wear his Indonesian clothes, with Kenyan passport…that should do it.
Gee, three insane rants and that was only this #8 on this thread.
#20
Don’t sweat it, Mr. Hoover Obama will take his lazer like focus off the plight of undocument Democrats in Arizona, and fix this…
Another world wide apology tour is in the works, in company with Nacy Pelosi who will promise the world she’ll investigate any American who opposes Mosque Triumphant at Ground Zero…they are all homophobe racists.

Before the democracy protests in Iran, Christians reported a real change among the population, a thirst for freedom.
Iran is like Russia once was, ruled only by terror. When the collapse occurs, it will be swift and total.
We should aid those yearning to be free, precisely what President Obama failed to do, because they are perhaps the best hope for Iran, Israel and the world.
Then, under the name Alfred Person,

Incorrect, you are compelled by warts to open your mouth and change feet.
I recall giving you two chances to predict which way an elevator would go, and you blew it.
I am so happy you are still here. This will be fun.
And then as a huge demonstration in #37
Put this under your hat, you have lots of room there. We don’t think you have an inferiority complex, we know you are inferior.
Next time you feel COMPELLED to tell us how REAL your life is, don’t.
Those people who follow you, do so only because of morbid curiosity, not because they really want to know you.
When a man feels compelled to say “I have a wonderful REAL life in a REAL world…” its obvious the opposite is true.
Evidently something is preying upon your mind, but you shouldn’t worry, it will soon die of starvation.
Such a small pin head, such a large open mouth brought to every subject, that is what will entertain us all.
Now that you have described your life, please post your picture…so all can see, next to your head, your jaws are the biggest bones in your body.
30, AlfredENewman,
Fun for you. Psychopaths and the clinically insane have that problem. As for me, I have a wonderful REAL life in a REAL world run by REAL science to enjoy. You can have your unicorns and fancy Jesus with Machine Guns.
So long, sucker! You’ll be banned soon enough again I’m sure.

” I have a wonderful REAL life in a REAL world…” Clearly something is preying upon your mind, don’t worry, it will soon die of starvation.
Its fun for all to see such a small pin head, approach every subject with such a large open mouth.
Now that you have described your life, post a picture. We want to confirm, next to your head, your jaws are the biggest bones in your body.
Any questions on why people don’t like you? And you haven’t even started on your “Invisible Dude in the Sky” crap yet.
I vote no.
-Russian officials will be present. If there is an attack at this point, then you know this whole sham “Iran war” crap was only a stepping stone to elevate any war to include Russia, and make good on the dreams of the madmen running planet for a full out WW3.
-all wars are scripted.
-they’ve probably already sabotaged the rods
