Recently a new student from Pakistan came to the lab to make his PhD in Numerical methods for Fluid Mechanics, which can be related to a nuclear facility, possibly one where they can make nukes that can be sold to Iran. He told me he speak Urdu and taught me some words like Hello, and see you later, you know, all terrorist code talk. He is neat, polite, a frequent smiler and quiet, like any terrorist, thats for sure. I know he is from Pakistan, which is an "ally" of US, but we all know those brownies are all the same and will trade their numerical simulation of some fluid mechanics problem to Iranian terrorists. I should keep an eye on him, just to make you feel more comfortable that no terrorist gets a free ride, buddy.

Even if they are, it will be at least five years before they have anything usable. A lot of diplomacy and change can happen in five years. Also, Israel has loads of nuclear weaponry, so they can defend themselves. Israel also has an open arms trade with China and refuses to sign the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, which Iran has agreed to. So, I'm not so sure Israel would wait to be attacked.
