The whole thing is just sensationalised by an Israel-supporting western media. Iran aren't currently building a nuke and all the material they have to build one is under 24/7 inspector/camera surveillance by the IAEA, something that is never mentioned in the western media. If they did decide tobuild one it'd be big news and we'd have at least a year's notice*, and neither Russia or China would give a monkeys if we did bomb them.

*and even then they'd have an untested weapon with no missile to stick it on and fire it more than a couple of hundred miles. Building a decent long range missile is something they won't be able to do as long as they're under sanctions, so chill.
Neither of these articles are from major media outlets to the best of my knowledge. That's what I found so surprising about the articles, that the statements from Russia/China had been wholly ignored by major western media sources (again, to the best of my knowledge).
Russia (and i'm sure China) have a bunch of loony tune outlets that are full of stories like this all the time.

Pravda.Ru: Russian news and analysis

Today they've got reports about blonde women ruling the world (at all times!), Israel having to buy more US weapons (actually given them on welfare) because of the super duper weapons Russia just sold Iran, and a UFO over Area 51.
