This sounds strangely familiar

A confidential analysis by Israeli intelligence has concluded that Iran has acquired "sufficient information to be able to design and produce an atom bomb and deploy it within 45 minutes of an order to do so." The New York Times reported on Saturday.

The New York Times report was posted on its website hours after Mohamed ElBaradei, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, arrived in Tehran for talks on a timetable for inspectors to visit a newly disclosed unfinished nuclear enrichment plant.
