I feel that Wikipedia is a good search engine for vast topics. However, I feel some of the current sources I was looking for weren’t mentioned in the article. This why I am taking the time to mention some up to date information of the Iranian Nuclear program and the world’ Iran’s nuclear program is causing a world wide debate for the truth. Every country has their own opinion on the topic, such as the United States and Israel believes that Iran is attempting to create weapons of mass destruction (WMD). This is while other countries believe that Iran is simply creating a nuclear power source to become a more modernized country. Despite the on going debates the European Union is sanctioning Iran. At the same time the United Kingdom is seeking more sanctions (Blitz 2012, p.2). The UK is looking to not just stall the nuclear program in Iran, but to demolish it by adding more sanctions to the ones already in place. The sanction put on Iran is blocking the exports of Iranian oil at the same time restricting banking transaction over the last twelve months. (Blitz 2012, p.2).

The sanctions put on Iran might seem harsh. However, Israel and the United States were able to prove to the International Atomic Energy Agency that prior to the sanctions Iran was moving towards atomic weapons (Hartcher 2012, p. 9). This is why the UK is pushing for more sanctions. Due to the evidence Israel as well is pushing the tempo of war, while the United States slows it down. Even if the United States is trying to slow the tempo down, they are not backing down. During the United Nations meeting Honorable Barrack H. Obama addressed the nations by informing them that a Nuclear Iran is a danger leading up to an arms race in the region, at the same time he asked Israel to fix their priorities (Hartcher 2012, p. 9).

Through the entire thick and the thin we need to ask ourselves, “Is Iran in the wrong?” Should we second think our decisions before we start bring the military in? The whole world remembers when the United States invaded Iraq thinking they had weapons of mass destructions to find out it was all a fallacy. (George 2012, p. 13). We need to turn heavily to our intelligence community for real proof on whether Iran is developing weapons or merely developing modern energy. At the same time our intelligence community shouldn’t rely on foreign government’s proof due to the creditability it may hold (George 2012, p. 13). Foreign governments tend to try to influence a country’s opinion on a situation by proving non-creditable proof. We all need to stop speculating and instead go for hard facts.
