On 23rd December 2006 the United Nations Security Council approved a resolution calling on the Islamic Republic of Iran to stop uranium enrichment within sixty days. With the passing of the February 21st 2007 deadline for Iran to halt its nuclear activities or face additional measures, an already tense political atmosphere has increased further with recent reports that The United States has moved more aircraft battle carrier groups to the Persian Gulf and Iran have initiated full scale war games.

The Islamic Republic has publicly asserted its right to develop nuclear technology, which is allowed under the principles of the 'Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty', for peaceful purposes and insists that it has no intention of developing a nuclear weapon. The The Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad recently said "Today, there are those who are against Iran's access to peaceful nuclear technology and are trying to put obstacles in our nuclear path in order to prevent us from exercising our rights", "Iran will continue to walk in the nuclear path powerfully and wisely until it reaches ultimate success". These comments were in direct contarst to George Bush's recent comments stating that "Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons." It is the fear of President Bush and the international community that Iran intends to create an atomic bomb and will increase its uranium enrichment activities and install the necessary 3000 centrifuges for weapons development at its uranium enrichment facility at Natanz.

Tehran and Washington appear to be on a collision course and the prospect of an armed conflict between Iran and the West appears to loom larger every day.

* In 2005 The Islamic republic of Iran signed up to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. The Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty was created by Ireland in 1968 and its first signatory was Finland. Signatories can be divided into two distinct groups, 'Nuclear Weapons States' and 'Non Nuclear Weapons States'. The 'Nuclear Weapons States' were those countries who already possessed nuclear weapons prior to the signing of the treaty (United States, Britain, Russia, China & France). These five states also happen to be the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council and have the power of vetoing any United Nations Security Council vote. The second group, the 'Non Weapons States' were those countries who didn't already possess nuclear weapons.
