Iran has material for 4 nuclear bombs: Israeli general
Iran has enough radioactive material to produce four nuclear bombs, Israel's chief of military intelligence, General Aviv Kochavi, asserted at a security conference on Thursday. “Today international intelligence agencies are in agreement with Israel that Iran has close to 100 kilograms (220 pounds) of uranium enriched to 20 percent, which is enough to produce four bombs,” he told the annual Herzliya conference. “Iran is very actively pursuing its efforts to develop its nuclear capacities, and we have evidence that they are seeking nuclear weapons,” he said.

Libyan In(ter)vention: False facts fatal for Gaddafi – Video
05-12-2011 12:01 Sanctions against Syria and looming prospects of an intervention into the country are drawing ever more parallels with the war in Libya.
