Middle East Tensions: Iran's nuclear challenge
Article Abstract:
Iran has ignored the UN Security Council's August 31, 2006, deadline to halt nuclear-enrichment efforts while the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) determined if the process was aimed at producing weapons-grade material. Iran's apparent nuclear ambition might encourage Egypt and Saudi Arabia to follow suit, but Israel is feeling threatened by Iran's plans.
