Report: Iran to cross nuclear threshold in three years
By Haaretz Service

A new U.S. military intelligence assessment claims Iran could have a nuclear weapon by 2010, CBS reported on Friday.

Iranian scientists have recently overcome difficulties which may enable Tehran to be in possession of a nuclear bomb three years earlier than previously thought, the report postulated.

However, the uranium enrichment plant currently under construction will have to become operational ahead of time in order for Tehran to create a nuclear bomb.

In response to the report, a leading nuclear expert, David Albright, warned against underestimating Iranian nuclear expertise.
