US heading for a bombing of Iran?
Much to the alarm of America's European allies, there is serious debate in Washington over whether ultimately the US should launch a limited bombing raid on Iran's nuclear sites. The Europeans are particularly worried about John Bolton, the hardline Under Secretary of State for Disarmament and now one of the most powerful voices in the Bush Administration on the twin crises of Iran and North Korea.

Around the world, key players, not given to hype or hysteria, are warning that nuclear terrorism is inevitable. They don't know when or where; all they know is that it almost certainly will happen. Mohamed ElBaradei, the head of the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), was blunt in his assessment when speaking at a conference of arms control specialists in Sydney last month. ElBaradei said the system of protocols aimed at preventing the spread of nuclear weapons was in "a mess" and that the risk of nuclear terrorism had to be considered "real, current and highly dangerous".
