| Iran has installed two cascades of 164 centrifuges each in its underground nuclear plant, laying a basis for full-scale enrichment of uranium and upping the stakes in a standoff with the West, European diplomats said on Monday. Only "European diplomats" from Vienna could say it "ups the stakes" and not be a laughing-stock. The cascades were to be test-run shortly, without uranium feedstock inside, and fuel material would then be added if the tests were successful, they said. The 328 centrifuges would be the vanguard of 3,000 planned for installation in the coming months. "Let's get ready to RRRRUUUUUMMMMBBBBLLE!" said Mahmoud Ahmadinijad, Iran's "President". Iran recently finished installing piping, electrical cables and other equipment needed to begin so-called "industrial-scale" enrichment in the vast subterranean complex, which is fortified and ringed by anti-aircraft guns in the central Iranian desert. Doom, gloom and sorrow for Rooters, eh? Firing up the cascades would dramatically sharpen Iran's confrontation with Western powers that pushed through limited U.N. sanctions on Tehran six weeks ago to try to curb what they suspect is a disguised effort to assemble atomic bombs. The Islamic Republic, the world's No. 4 oil producer, says it wants solely civilian atomic energy from uranium enrichment. "Yes, and to kill the Joooos, of course", added Mr. Ahmadinijad. That fact alone (#4 oil producer in the world) should "sway world opinion" that Iran's up to no good. The Nazi-heavy, Joooo killing rhetoric should be icing on the cake in taking down the MM's and hard. More at linky |

| #1 No doubt the centrifuges are for G-force testing for their nascent space program. |
