Iran War when?

If the current diplomatic efforts are unsuccessful the US may be forced to take more aggressive measures to ensure that Iran does not deploy unconventional devices.
Israel is worried that a nuclear Iran may do what it has threatened to do "Wipe Israel off the map". Even the mighty United States is worried about an unstable radical regime like Iran having access to intercontenental ballistic missles. This technology was purchased with oil billions from the government of the People's Democratic Republic of North Korea. Iran has two uranium mines capable of producing material for about 100 missles per year. The combination of an unstable radical regime and nuclear technology could lead to an explosive confrontation with the west.

The worry is that these technologies might be made available to "freedom fighters" and other would be martyrs in the cause of Islamic Jihad.

Bush intends to resolve this situation before the November elections of 2006. According to Bush, Europeans are waffling as Iran arms itself, only the US has the courage to act at this critical juncture.

The current plan is for the US to launch tactical nuclear strikes against Iran to destroy its infrastructure and military capabilities.
