Former Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations, Dan Gillerman, says Israel “will not allow” Iran to complete the building of a nuclear reactor in Bushehr, leaving a deadline of only six days for an attack on the site.
Former Bush Administration UN Ambassador, John Bolton, told FOX News that once fuel rods are loaded into Bushehr, it will become “essentially immune” to an Israeli attack “because once the rods are in the reactor, an attack on [it] risks spreading radiation in the air, and perhaps into the water of the Persian Gulf.”
The plant is being built with the help of Russia, which has spent US $1 billion and 10 years on the project.
Russia insists the plant cannot produce a nuclear weapon and has made arrangements that all spent fuel rods from the reactor will be sent back to them so Iran will have no ability to make a nuclear weapon.

Time is running out. I can't see Israel not acting.
My opinion Israel will never preemptively strike Iran, never never never. It ain’t going to happen. They have been cowed.
i feel they must do something to stop iran asap
Its a delicate
situation
for israel get your chairs and popcorn ready
we might be in for a ride in this days
israel must attack or accept a nucleor iran
this week is the disiding week
LOL!! Really?? Israel has been cowed?? Name one time in the last 62 years when Israel was cowed! Name one time when they backed down when they said they were going to do something. They say a nuclear Iran is unacceptable, and they would start WW3 to back up that claim. Can't blame them really…terrorists came over here and killed several thousand people and we are going on a decade at war with them. If another country said the US did not have a right to exist and should be wiped off the Earth, you can bet we would have already done something about it! Israel will do this, and Russia, Iran, and maybe even China will counterstrike…and fail. Israel doesn't mess around, and they aren't scared of anyone (including the US!). It will be an interesting week!
TIme has run out.
Israel cannot take on Russia the supplier and Iran the developer.
If they attack Iran, then Turkey, Palestine, Syria, Egypt, Lebanon and sourrounding countries all step up with them to fight the battle.
With Hussain in power and Europe weaker than ever they would be real dumb to attack oh and by the way communist china is the main maker/supplier of all these weapons along with Russia.
You are talking WW3 if this happens, if it does happen, then goodbye Israel
To expertman: Don't be so sure about Israel being cowed. I think they are among the bravest people on the planet.
Kudos on your comment Tom. A person with intelligence is always so refreshing. Israel has beaten every enemy that has come against them. The 'world" need to keep their noses out of Israel's business and start thinking about Obama as a do-nothing oval office sitter..unless he is opening his mouth to lie again..that is the ONLY thing he can be counted on..hmmm I wonder for you liberals and homosexuals as well…Islam isn't too fond of live homosexuals either. So that is why Obama endorses that sin.. He knows they will be taken care of by his "family"
NO, NO NO Israel can’t do anything now but to wait.
1. US rtoops are still in Irak they start living on august 31 2010
2.If Israel at tacks Iran US rtoops are easily exposed to Iran retaliation and US condemnation probably cutting off ties with Israel in response. Resulting in letting go Israel alone on w ar.
3.The sophisticated S-3hundrd anti-airkraff miss iles would significantly boost Iran’s ability to defend against airstrikes. Israel and the United States have strongly objected to the deal. (Cause they know they are screwed)
4. Before busher plant be active. Once it be activated bye bye oportunity to launch a pre atta ck on Iran.
5.If Israel is going to do it IT HAS TO BE NOW! before 20 August 2010 when russian defense minister arrives to Iran.
Ii other words it is to late. I see Israel doing nothing but start dealing with a super strong nuclear Iran. Anyway AM ISRAEL CHAI !
Israel nor EEUU could attack Iran. I see them negotiating with a nuclear Iran.
NO BALLS NO GO, WERE ARE U GOLDA?
Forget it… it’s all big talk.
Rather read: “There’s no way for the USA to win a non-nuclear war with Iran” – by Gwynne Dyer at: http://www.straight.com/article-336907/vancouver/gwynne-dyer-theres-no-way-us-win-nonnuclear-war-iran
I’m not sure if israel will do a preemptive strike or not, although if they did I believe it would be fully justified seeing as how iran and many other middle eastern countries would love nothing more than to see israel blown off of the face of the earth. It is probable that a preemptive strike would cause a backlash that would likely affect American operations in the Middle East, however such a backlash would surely be preferable to a nuclear armed Iran. Either way there is no possibility of Israel sitting back and doing nothing. If they do not attack preemptively they must have some other plan in mind for dealing with the threat.. Whatever the result I’m pretty certain that Israel will not fall to military force by any number of opponents, including a cooperative attack from both Iran and Russia if such an event were to occur (which is definitely possible). I don’t know about you guys, but it seems to me like our world is about to change drastically.. and I’m scared as hell of what the face of that world is going to be.
It’s a good thing to share what you feel but it’s my impression that some of you are worried. Wake up people. We were never in control of this world. The “board” has been played and it’s “Checkmate” time. My God has the whole world in his hand’s and the next move will not be with a King but a Pawn. I’m Blessed to be alive to witness such things that are coming to pass. There is no gray area . There is only Good & Bad and your choice. Where will you stand. I truly Hope with me for the greater good of all Mankind.
