Iran do they have nuclear weapons?

[azurnoir]

Last I heard they are claiming they are developing nuclear power for electrical generation. This week some US politicians are claiming they have nuclear weapons or are very close to having them. Is this BS or did I miss something?:wtf:

1. It depends on how you measure time

If you look at Iran's nuclear weapons timetable from an astronomical point of view where soon can be anywhere in the next 250,000 years, then yeah, Iran are on the verge of having nuclear weapons.

However, if you're slightly more sane, and you go by what the IAEA and other, real, experts say then Iran is at best about 10 years from having a nuclear weapon.
