They dont have to "turn it on". You do realize the fuel itself is already radiaoctive...it only needs to be somewhere in the building when it gets bombed to disperse radiation into the atmosphere from the ensuing dust cloud. The reactor does NOT need to be "turned on" for this to happen.

Once the reactor is filled on the 21st they do not turn it on right then and there
they would probably wait a day or two 22-23 to turn that puppy on. So yes, the 8 day timetable still stands.
Actually 7 days, since this quote is from yesterday. We will just have to wait and see.
If it they were to attack, i would say they would do it once the shipment has been delivered to the site and before the reactor has been fueled.
I understand,
So if they were to go ahead with an air strike, what type of munitions would be used?
My guess it would be a nuclear type bunkerbuster. I would assume there would be some sort of radioactive fallout anyways. Might as well take out the fuel rods as well.
"Once that uranium, once those fuel rods are very close to the reactor, certainly once they're in the reactor, attacking it means a release of radiation, no question about it," Bolton said.

20% chances they will strike iran after the fuel rod are installed to do more damage to the region
but the risk of international condemnation will increase if they strike after
100% chances they will strike Iran ... like they did in Irak and Syria
the Israeli regime will not let Iran go away with nuclear tech
thats for sure
from my part i think they will strike before the fuel rod are in place
for many logic reasons .... of course i dont support any war of aggresion against any countries ... but Israel logic is like the devil logic
WW3 is coming
once the strikes start ... the world will fall down like dominos
all because of the Israeli regime
since they want the holy land for themself when the Christ make is second return... they think he will grant them powers
Zionist = Evil entity
this regime should be wipe out (replaced) asap before they burn the world to ash's with USA nukes

Are you saying he's NOT a warmonger?
Consider the source of your links.
Bolton: Even Israeli Attack Against Iranian Nuclear Program Would Be Supported in Arab World
This is from about a month ago. He was wrong, by the way. The Arab nations would NOT support that. I have lots more.
