'The Daily Beast' reveals Israel brought Iranian soil samples to Washington to show time is running out for solving the nuclear threat.
Israeli officials are again warning Washington that time is almost up, and that the Iranian nuclear threat is growing stronger -- this time based on soil samples collected near suspected sites.
Investigative reporter Eli Lake writes this week in an exclusive report published in The Daily Beast that a delegation of Israeli diplomats, IDF officers and intelligence officials raised the issue at a meeting in the U.S. capital during the annual "strategic dialogue" conference earlier this month.
Israel's presentation on the Iranian nuclear program included intelligence based on soil samples that indicated the Islamic Republic is building secret reactors to produce nuclear fuel.
Moshe "Boogie" Ya'alon confirmed in a December 24 speech in Jerusalem that although Iran probably did indeed suspend their nuclear technology activity in 2003, they resumed the drive to produce an atomic weapon by 2005.
this time based on soil samples collected near suspected sites.

So how is one to prove where these soil samples came from? Israel is, itself, a nuclear state and the number one intelligence infiltrator in the U.S... They didn't even have to go into Iran to get this dirt, all they had to do is go out back!
This is laughable...edit on 29/12/2011 by Iamonlyhuman because: (no reason given)

I have been all over these threads, and can't believe I haven't asked this question.
Ok, lets say the intelligence is right, and Iran is making a bomb while hiding it.
What do all of you anti American /Israel people say then?
Some may say they have a right to the bomb.... So does Yemen also? How about Cuba? Venezuela?
Why can't everyone have them? Lets all have nukes..... oh wait, lets get rid of ALL nukes...

Why should I be anti-american if I say it is none of the USA's business if Iran as nuclear technology.
I note that the USA is not getting rid of its nuclear arsenal, oh no you guys desperately want to nuke Iran.
It is the religiously fanatical christian right extremists that seem to demand this action. No different to the fanatiocal religious Islamic extremists really
If the USA said to Israel - you are on your own, we might somewhere.
