Nuke experts say Iran could become more dangerous after US attack

Nearly two weeks after the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran's nuclear facilities, it remains unclear how much of a setback it dealt the country's ambitions to obtain the ultimate weapon.

Some nuclear proliferation experts told ABC News they believe the strikes could lead to a "fork-in-the-road" moment that results in Tehran taking a more dangerous and secretive path to obtaining nuclear arms if it chooses to do so.

On Wednesday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a bill approved last week by Iran's parliament to halt cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the United Nations' nuclear watchdog. Iran's powerful 12-member Guardian Council, half of which is appointed by Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has also signed off on the bill.

"This suspension will remain in effect until certain conditions are met, including the guaranteed security of nuclear facilities and scientists," Iran's state television reported, quoting from the bill.
