An investigation in the United States has charged a US-based Israeli company with attempting to export nuclear weapons-related material to Israel.

The investigation conducted by the Bureau of Industry and Security says Israeli company, Pelogy, attempted to export controlled goods to Israel, India, China and South Africa. It says in the case of Israel and India, the goods could have been used to make nuclear weapons.

The charges against the company comes after Israeli sources declared earlier in July that the US has secretly given a "written guarantee" to Israel that obliges Washington to sell Israel nuclear fission materials.

TVNL Comment: If this were an Iranian firm how much news coverage do you think it would get? How soon do you think the bombs would be dropping on Iran?
