In Jerusalem

According to a March 14 article in The Jerusalem Post, experts say they've found a site in Iran that has a nuclear explosion chamber.

The compound they're talking about is located at Parchin military site in Iran, about four kilometers from a high-explosives facility that the International Atomic Energy Agency investigated in 2005, the article states.

Read more about that site in The Jerusalem Post article.

The article quotes a report by David Albright, founder of the Institute for Science and International Security, who has studied satellite images of the compound:

"The IAEA has evidence that the test chamber was placed at Parchin in 2000 and that a building was subsequently constructed around it."

Experts aren't certain if this site had explosives in the past or if there are some currently.

What do you think? If the time comes to decide, should the US support Israel in a strike against Iran?

A Reuters poll, the results of which were also published March 14 in The Jerusalem Post, shows that "Most Americans support a strike on Iran," even if gasoline prices would rise because of it.
