<b>Iran fears attack soon, US preparing</b>
23 May 2005: Fearing a US attack within weeks, Iran has begun a desperate search for a âdirtyâ atomic bomb in North Korea and Africa, even while US secretary of state Condoleezaa Rice has told officials and representatives in Asia that diplomacy is at an end and force has to be used against that country.
During his last meeting with foreign minister Natwar Singh, his Iranian counterpart, Kamal Kharazzi, said Iran would need Indiaâs assistance during the war, and to Natwarâs query, âWhere is the war?â he replied that it was coming within weeks, not months.
Separately, this was confirmed by Rice when she visited India, when she spoke of âinstability coming to Asiaâ, but which would lead to stability, and officials said she was clearly referring to Iran, where hardliners are increasingly coming to power.
The US has also been put on guard by Iranâs decision to convert a third of its foreign exchange reserves, about $40 billion, into Euros, to escape American sanctions, and intelligence agencies say some of the funds could be routed to buy a âdirtyâ bomb untraceably. http://www.indiareacts.com/nati2.asp?recno=3312
