1. a few mistakes in this piece
holy warrior ,   uk   (01.28.13)
Firstly, 20% enriched uranium is not sufficient for weaponisation as this article claims, secondly the first reference to WND is incorrectly types WMD. Since bibi's re-election there has been a sharp rise in anti iran propaganda mostly amateurish and rushed like this article.
2. WND
giantslor ,   Mission, USA   (01.28.13)
WND is a wingnut website but it wouldn't surprise me if they had an inside line to Israeli intelligence.
3. US will let Iran go nuclear
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (01.28.13)
there is not one thing that obama has done to stop iran's nuclear weapons program. the sanctions have accomplished nothing whatever, as was predicted by many people. north korea has survived sanctions for decades.
4. What a pity if it's not true
TC   (01.28.13)
Better luck next time I guess.
5. Well Isn't That A Bummer
(01.28.13)
I'll Bet Some One Can Make It Happen? Give Me The Pass Codes it would be like the Fourth Of July in tehran Haji Style!!!
6. Not to worry. WH doesn't know about Benghazi yet!
Cyberbrain ,   World   (01.28.13)
They'll find a way to sweep it under the carpet with Benghazi-Gate and consequences of unbridled spending spree -- for the next administration. Obummer's was elected on the mandate of glossing-over -- foreign policy disasters and economic disasters.
7. Cipora at 3, you are right, ALL American
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (01.28.13)
administrations since the fall of the Shah have caved in to Irans mullahs...! All US Presidents have been SUPERCOWARDS !
8. Was that why Obama called Bibi to congratulate him?
Harry Wright ,   UK   (01.29.13)
To congratulate him for Israel's success in breaching Iranian security and blowing up Fordo? Or was the congratulation the pretext to try to pick Bibi's mouth about what happened? If Bibi kept mum, that would explain why Carney declared 'we have no information to confirm report'. Leave them with that because Obama sells out Israel to Iran by leaking confidential information so that Israel ends up having to scrap its plans. I hardly think that Obama will be over-joyed if Iran's nuclear program is sabotaged in any way.
9. Chris 7, this one is much worse
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   Z   (01.29.13)
he is worse than carter, and that is difficult to achieve. this one is an unreliable pathological liar and the entire press lets him get away with it.
10. Did it happen or not?
Andrew P ,   Alexandria VA   (01.29.13)
A blast that large would show up on seismometers many hundreds of miles away. There must be available data that shows whether it happened or not.
11. As if anything Obama says is credible
Larry ,   Or Yehuda   (01.29.13)
12. The US doubts it?
Michael Redbourn ,   Arad Israel   (01.29.13)
There's a lot of double-talk going on about this. The US can read a license plate from space but it can't confirm or deny this? Seems like if Iran is denying it then the US and others will deny it too. Why start an unneeded war?
13. Sorry, but I am a bit slow sometimes...the
Chris Rettenmoser ,   Bayerisch Gmain Germ   (01.29.13)
reason behind the US denial is : These MORONS just want to carry on with their phony and deceptive nuke talks...! CNN has of course not even one word about the whole affair !
14. # 11 Sometimes?
Robert ,   Australia   (01.30.13)
15. #12 michael
solomon ,   bklyn   (01.30.13)
And how is denying or acknowledging an explosion going to start a war? A war is started by either an attack, or the imminent threat of an attack.
