Doubts On Iranian Nuclear Capabilities

Iran on one hand is saying that they are ramping up enrichment. On the other hand, Russia and other folks are saying that Iran might be covering for technical problems that they are running into.

It's difficult to tell who's telling the truth. Russia is a major ally of Iran and may be trying to help keep back the push for more sanctions against Iran. But other people besides Russia are voicing similar opinions. The IAEA can't confirm that Iran's program is for nuclear power only. They have been banned from "snap checks" on nuclear facilities, so it makes the situation all the more muddy.

The REAL problems is what are the consequences of doing nothing? Are we dealing with the next Hitler? That seems to be the common consensus right now. Are we dealing with the worlds greatest bullshit artist? Possibly, but I wouldn't want to make that guess and have thousands or millions incinerated because I was wrong.
