| Satellite Photos May Show New Iran Nuclear Site |
| 2004-09-16 |
| New satellite images show Iran's Parchin military complex, southeast of Tehran, may be a site for research, testing and production of nuclear weapons, a nuclear expert said on Wednesday. David Albright of the Institute for Science and International Security, a think tank, released an analysis of the photos and told Reuters they show the site "has a potential that would warrant (U.N. inspectors) going there" to determine the exact nature of the operation. "Based on a review of overhead imagery of this site ... (it) is a logical candidate for a nuclear weapons-related site, particularly one involved in researching and developing high explosive components for an implosion-type nuclear weapon," he added in an analysis posted on the ISIS Web site. |

| #7 EOZ---The MMs are so fixated on getting the BOMB that they plumb forgot about their frisky little neighbor. You're right, Israel cannot afford to be wrong. There is literally no margin for error. OTOH, the MMs probably figure that an attack by Israel on the facilities in Iran would galvanize the Arab world and it would then be Dogpile on Israel. It's a harebrained idea, but the MMs have already put themselves out on a limb by threatening to annihilate Israel. |

| #6 Alaska Paul, Well, I guess they forgot there are no elections in Israel. We may beat you to it, After all we'd be the target for their first nuclear test. |

| #5 Iran figures GW will not do anything before the election, so for them, it's full speed ahead. The IAEA, to the Mad Mullahs, is nothing but a speed bump on the way to acquiring nukes. |

| #4 I bet Vlad can dig up some very specific intel on the Iran project. If he wants any help from this side of the pond, he'd better. |

| #3 I wonder if they'll have a nose camera on this one. Seriously, a military option will have to happen before any political option is ready. This capability needs to be destroyed and I bet Vlad can dig up some very specific intel on the Iran project. |
