Iran Caught Again With Highly Enriched Uranium
For those on the Left who still believe that Iran's nuclear ambitions are peaceful (FoxNews):
Experts from the International Atomic Energy Agency have found unexplained plutonium and enriched uranium traces in a nuclear waste facility in Iran and have asked Tehran for an explanation, an IAEA report said Tuesday.
This isn't the first time in the past year Iran has been found to have such materials. I doubt it will be the last.
The article also contains important information about Iran's Arak reactor project, which, when complete, will be capable of generating enough plutonium for two bombs a year.
Combined with the output from the 3,000 centrifuges Iran plans to have online by next year, which is also capable of producing enough highly enriched uranium for weapons, that's a lot of nuclear weapons capabilities for a country that claims it is peaceful, despite the fact it has often and recently threatened to destroy Israel.
If you still believe they are 5-10 years away from achieving nuclear weapons, think again. It took the United States to go from theory to bomb in less than four years. And Iran has access to far better technology than the U.S. had in 1945.
And you can bet Osama bin Laden will be waiting to acquire as much weapons grade materail as Iran is able to produce.
