First ask yourself, why does an oilproducing country develope nuclear industry?

Secondly, to my knowledge uranium enrichment's sole purpose in this case is enriching it for weapons, no country in the world has one nuclear plant AND an enrichment site, with one enrichment site you can service alot of nuclear plants e.g an incredibly expensive industry for just one nuclear plant.

The danger of nuclear weapons development in Iran is clear for everyone to see, and i guess sattelite surveillance is very high at the moment,but what can be done?

My guess is diplomatic actions will have little to no effect, as seen with the Iraqi plant. By the time diplomatic solutions have been exhausted Israel may be seriously considering an attack on one or both plants.

Israel has never been secret about its policy towards nuclear development in the region, as proved in Iraq and they will never allow Iran to get to a 'knife at troat' situation therefore they have no other alternative but to destroy it with an airstrike.

When they took the Iraqi plant out they didnt ask permission from anyone, why would one think they would now? They consider it to be a direct treat, and with pilots who will sacrifice themselves for the safety of Israel and its people this seems to be the most logical thing that could happen.

This will seriously undermine Israel's international support, same happened with the 1982 strike, but that will not stop them. They'd rather fight a long conventional war than a nuclear one.

As for my opinion, if any country refuses IAA inspections that facility should be destroyed immediatly no questions asked.
