Secret Iranian nuke facility revealed

Feb. 25, 2015 - The National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), an organization opposed to the radical Islamic government of Iran, has revealed a secret nuclear facility called Lavizan-3. It is buried deep underground, and consists of four parallel halls, each more than 200 yards long.

Iran is Deployed, 'Planning War' Along Israel's Northern Border

Feb. 23, 2015 - Yigal Carmon, president of the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), warns that Iran has infiltrated Lebanon and Syria, effectively establishing an active front from Israel's northern Mediterranean border to the Golan Heights. Iran has formed a united front from Tehran, through Baghdad, Syria and Lebanon, in the north, and is making inroads into the Palestinian Authority-controlled areas of Judea and Samaria east of Israel and Gaza on Israel's western border.

Iran has several objectives, Carmon explained: "These include deterring Israel from attacking Iran's nuclear capabilities, capturing the Golan from Israel, and the like – but these are sub-objectives. Their main goal is ultimately to destroy Israel."

Nuclear deal could allow Tehran to make bomb

Feb. 23, 2015 - In an effort to find agreement with Iran by the March 24 deadline, the P5+1" group — Britain, France, Germany, Russia, the U.S. and China — may fail to stop Iran's ability to develop nuclear weapons.

Secretary of State John Kerry met in Geneva Monday with Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif amid reports that a deal was taking shape that might allow Tehran to build nuclear weapons in its final years.

However, the U.S. Congress is considering legislation that would make it difficult for Iran to reach their apparent goal.

Arab governments reportedly concerned about terms of Iran nuke talks

Feb. 21, 2015 - The governments of some Arab countries are expressing fear that a nuclear deal with Iran will leave Iran's nuclear developments at a point that threatens them and leads to a nuclear-arms race in the region.

The major Sunni states, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, have said that a final agreement could allow Shiite-dominated Iran, their regional rival, to keep the technologies needed to produce nuclear weapons.

One Arab official said that at this point it would be better for the talks to collapse than it would be for them to adopt a bad deal.

Obama Has Lost His Nerve in the Race to Stop Iran

Feb. 14, 2015 - Iranian leaders cannot be trusted. Six times they have ignored UN resolutions.

What is most alarming about Iran is that the United States, in the person of President Barack Obama, seems to have lost its nerve to stop Iran’s final dash to be a nuclear military power, with appalling consequences for the Middle East.

The United States will also be in danger once Iran has nuclear weapons and missiles that can reach that far.

Boehner denies 'blindsiding' White House with Netanyahu invite

Jan. 27, 2015 - Israeli President Benjamin Netanyahu has been invited to speak to Congress about the danger of allowing Iran to continue their nuclear development. The White House complained that they should have been involved in the process. US Speaker of the House John Boehner told CBS' 60 Minutes program that he had advised the President of the invitation. He felt it was necessary for Congress to hear from Netanyahu.

"There's nobody in the world who can talk about the threat of radical terrorism, nobody can talk about the threat that the Iranians pose, not just to the Middle East and to Israel,. . . but to the entire world."

Boehner said that the President had practically ignored the issue of terrorism in his State of the Union address last week.
