A very strange article... Shows how varied concepts can be in the mid-east.
Premise:
Is it possible that that Washington has tacitly given the go-ahead to Iran to build its nuclear bomb? According to this article from the Tunis Hebdo of Tunisia, just as the U.S. let Pakistan have the bomb to keep India from embracing the USSR too strongly, it is ready to sign off on an Iranian atom bomb, with security guarantees for Israel. All of this worries the oil-rich Gulf States, who fear the now almost inevitable arrival of the 'Shiite Crescent.'
