www.youtube.com RTAmerica | August 13, 2010 Russia is set to launch Iran's nuclear power plant in Bushehr next week. The US and Israel remain in strong opposition to the nuclear plant. Will this spark a military strike on Iran? Former CIA analyst Ray McGovern and RT contributor Wayne Madsen both say no. McGovern does believe an attack by Israel is possible sooner than later, but this shift will only be a small factor in the bigger picture.

Why does the EU join in sanctions against Iran?
The European Union has now joined the US and Canada in sanctions against Iran. The sanctions are an attempt to prevent Iran from furthering their nuclear enrichment program.

The EU makes up for 20 percent of Iran's oil exports and many experts believe Iran won't feel the effects of the sanctions.

US and EU joining forces to seize Iran's oil?
The European Union has now jumped on the sanctions bandwagon. The EU joins the US and Canada in sanctions against Iran for allegedly pursuing nuclear weapons. The countries involved in the sanctions hope Iran changes its mind on the alleged enrichment program, but many feel this is a flawed strategy because the IAEA report doesn't show concrete evidence that Iran is enriching uranium for weapons, and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta has echoed the report and declared Iran is not armed. The EU still unites with the West and Doctor Sara Vakhshouri, author and independent consultant, joins us to find out what the sanctions really accomplish. Follow Liz on Twitter at twitter.com
