| Iran Wants to Break IAEA Seals on Frozen Atomic Parts |
| 2005-07-07 |
| Iran has asked the United Nations' International Atomic Energy Agency to let it temporarily break UN seals on atomic equipment that has been mothballed under an agreement with the EU's three biggest powers, diplomats said yesterday. A senior Iranian official confirmed this was true but denied that it was a violation of its pledge to freeze all activities linked to the production of enriched-uranium fuel, a technology that can be used to in either atomic power plants or weapons. "The Iranians have approached the (UN) agency with a request to temporarily remove seals from a component at the UCF (Uranium Conversion Facility) in Isfahan to conduct a test on this component," a diplomat said on condition on anonymity. |

| #4 I don't think they'd have to directly nuke Paris, mmurray. Like after the Chernoble incident, I do believe much of Europe is downwind from the corridor between the Iranian launch site and the Israeli target... somewhere within which the missile might be exploded in mid-air. Even given their concern about their Iranian customers, I do not understand why France and Germany aren't concerned about the literal fall-out. |

| #3 ...a request to temporarily remove seals from a component Someone forgot the combination to the safe and the extra copy is in there. Seriously, I am getting a sadistic thought and hope that Iran gets the bomb and soon. The US and Israel have anti-missle defenses and I would love to see the UN, EU, and the IAEA get egg smeared all over their faces. "News flash! Iran nukes Paris over not getting enough tribute!" BREWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! |
