Iran closing in on nuke bomb, says nuclear group


 


The Daily Star, 27 Oct 2013 – Iran may only need a month to produce enough weapons-grade uranium for a nuclear bomb, a US-based anti-proliferation group says in a new assessment of Tehran’s enrichment
program.
But that is only if Iran were able to take the most extreme and direct enrichment path, says the Institute for Science and International Security in Washington. Under other scenarios, it would take significantly longer for Tehran to produce the material — more than 11 months in one case.
The warning Thursday from ISIS was released as US lawmakers consider legislation that could tighten sanctions on Iran until a deal is reached.
