US Special Envoy for Iran Robert Malley briefed senators during a closed door session
* Officials told senators in a closed-door briefing that Iran could have enough enriched uranium for a nuclear weapon within weeks
* It comes at critical moment for talks in Vienna to revive the 2015 nuclear deal
* And on Wednesday, Iran unveiled the Khaibar-buster with a range of 900
* The missile has high accuracy and can defeat shield systems, state media says
* Negotiations continue in Vienna to revive Tehran's tattered nuclear deal
Iran could have enough material to build a nuclear weapon within weeks, top U.S. officials told senators Wednesday, hours after the country unveiled a new missile with a 900-mile range that could hit American bases in the region.
The assessment of its nuclear capability highlights how Iran's breakout timeline - the time needed to produce enough enriched uranium for a bomb - has shortened.
And senators said it showed the need to get Iran to return to the terms of the 2015 nuclear deal, which limited its nuclear program in return for sanctions relief.

Iran see negotiation as time buying and nothing else.
"Israel puts an Iran nuclear breakout time at 4–6 months..."
They've been saying that since the first Gulf war. Chicken little loves to chicken little.
This summer they'll say the same thing.
I should very much like to meet a " sober" Senator.
Israel has been saying Iran is 6 months away from a nuclear bomb for over decade.
1. If Iran gets the bomb
do we bomb them?
will Israel bomb them?
will Saudis then get their own nukes?
do we assist them?
What will Biden do? What would Trump do?
what would you suggest we do?
