They could have a nuclear bomb 5 years ago if they wanted to. Enrichment is not some sort of video game loading screen, where they inch closer and closer to 90%. They have all the capabilities of enriching at 90% and building a bomb if they wanted.

If Iran wanted to build a nuclear weapon they could kick out the IAEA and build one tomorrow, like North Korea did. Or they could do what Israel India and Pakistan did when they wanted nukes, and simply never signed the NPT.

People seem to forget that Iran willingly signed the NPT allowing inspections in the first place. There was no need for them to do that, as it is not illegal for a country to build nuclear bombs. That's why Israel Pakistan and India have them. It is only illegal if you agree not to build them by signing the NPT.

The idea that Iran signed the NPT 20 years ago and has allowed endless sanctions to build the slowest nuclear bomb in the history of nuclear arms is ridiculous. Less technologically advanced countries were building nuclear bombs 50,60, 70 years ago.

Like most headlines on the subject this one is worded to make you think that Iran was caught doing something and confessed. There was nothing to catch them and nothing to confess to; they broadcasted the move and have been for several months now. The IAEA is actively monitoring their program, it wasn't an accusation it was a statement of fact.
