Pentagon Plans to Derail Iranian Atomic Bomb Test
(Sunday Telegraph-UK) Philip Sherwell - Iran has drawn up designs for a deep underground tunnel with remote-controlled heat and pressure sensors as part of what Western intelligence officials believe are preparations for a secret atomic test. Richard Perle, a senior defense official at the time of the Iraq war, said that 12 B2 bombers, each carrying dozens of precision-guided weapons, could deliver a serious blow to Iran's nuclear ambitions. Perle and Dan Goure, vice-president of the Lexington Institute defense think-tank, believe America is better equipped to carry out the attacks than Israel.
