Iran a year away from nuke, Panetta says
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta told the CBS program 60 Minutes that "The United States - and the president's made this clear - does not want Iran to develop a nuclear weapon."   

"That's a red line for us. And it's a red line obviously for the Israelis so we share a common goal here."    

Panetta maintained that US officials "will take whatever steps are necessary to stop it" if Washington receives intelligence that Iran is proceeding with developing a nuclear weapon.

Iran has refused to discuss the alleged weapons experiments for three years, saying they are based on "fabricated documents" provided by a "few arrogant countries"  a phrase authorities in Iran often use to refer to the United States and its allies.
