The Ayatollahs' Bomb
(National Review) - In recent weeks, senior clerics have come in unusually large numbers to congratulate Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Iran now has all the necessary components for an atomic bomb or two or three, and all that remains is to assemble them. That would track with the mullahs' clear international strategy, which is to stall for time. They think that if they can make it into early 2004, they'll be safe from us for at least eleven months, as Bush would not attack during an election year. In the meantime, they expect to be able to test a nuclear device.
