As you're reading articles like [http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=1831882|this one] from ABCNews.com and AP.Org, remember there's a difference between enriching uranium (which Iran has now managed to do, apparently) and building nuclear weapons. Most folks still seem to think that Iran is still years away from nukes (as in weapons). How do I know this? Here is the very final sentence of the final paragraph in the above linked article:
The enrichment process can take years to produce a gas rich enough in uranium-235 that it can be used to power a nuclear reactor or produce a bomb.
By saying that the process "can take years" I don't think they mean us to infer that it "
can take months." Just my guess, of course.
