US intelligence: Iran will be able to build first nuclear bomb by February 2009

FROM DEBKAFILE:

“US intelligence’s amended estimate, that Iran will be ready to build its first bomb just one month after the next US president is sworn in, is disclosed by DEBKAfile’s Washington sources as having been relayed as a guideline to the Middle East teams of both presidential candidates, Senators John McCain and Barack Obama.” READ MORE

Could this be one of the “tests” that Biden was talking about? Afterall, McCain and Obama have received breifings from US Intel in order to make the Presidential Transition smoother. Biden, Obama, and McCain should have a pretty good idea of what may be happening in the World within the next “6 months” and from Biden’s recent controversial comments that “Obama would be ‘Tested’”, we have to wonder just how serious some of that intelligence was.

We’ve already talked about the fact that Iran was days away from exploding a dirty bomb off the shore of Israel, what if Obama’s “test” will involve a nuclear armed Iran actually trying to use its weapons to attack the United States or our allies? Will Obama’s ‘unpopular’ response be to not protect us?  Will it be to stay in Iraq even though the Democrats have favored a US defeat if it meant it would get them elected? I’d rather just elect John McCain so we can avoid the ‘international crisis’ alltogether.

    Yes, and the UN will never do anything.

    Israel will be getting busy very soon.

    Tess, the UN WILL do something. They’ll bloviate and then blame the US for Iran’s actions. Israel, on the other hand, will ACT.

    Mike,

    The UN will blame Israel as well as the US. They always do.

    Carlos,

    I have a confession to make. I already voted… straight ticket Republican. I am still pissed about the bailout but I realized that a vote for McCain is also a vote for Palin. I want Palin to enter the national stage so that she may become McCain’s natural successor and hopefully, take this party back to the fiscally conservative roots that we’ve been longing for the past two decades.
