CIA Director Leon Panetta says Iran probably has enough low-enriched uranium for two nuclear weapons, but that it likely would take two years to build the bombs.
Panetta also says he is doubtful that recent U.N. penalties will put an end to Iran's nuclear ambitions.
He says the penalties could help to weaken Tehran's government by creating serious economic problems. But he adds, "Will it deter them from their ambitions with regards to nuclear capability? Probably not."

If Iran has enough enriched uranium for two nuclear weapons, and if Iran could build those nuclear weapons in two years, and if it is doubtful that recent U.N. penalties will put an end to Iran's nuclear ambitions, what is America doing to stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons?
