Iran. The Bomb At Any Cost?
Description
Halting Iran's nuclear program is one of the West's main defense objectives and the number-one priority of Israel. But the international community wasn't always so scared of an Iranian nuclear program - in fact, both the United States and Europe played a key role in setting it up. This film offers a look back at Iran's nuclear program over the past 50 years and its ramifications today. What began with the blessing of the Americans under the "Atoms for Peace" initiative in the 1960s has turned into a deadly cat-and-mouse game with the IAEA. With the help of technology from China and Russia and centrifuges from Pakistan, Iran is thought by many to be well on the way to developing nuclear weapons. What are the consequences of a nuclear-armed Iran? How will Israel react? And can anything now be done to prevent a nightmare scenario?
