JP > IAEA: Iran has over 2 tons enriched uranium -2 bombs' worth
2010-06-01
Isn't there some rumor about this Uranium being contaminated? It could also be a diversion . . . .
VIENNA — Iran has amassed more than two tons of enriched uranium, the International Atomic Energy Agency said Monday in a report that heightened Western concerns about the country preparing to produce a nuclear weapon.

Two tons of uranium would suffice for two nuclear warheads, although Iran says it does not want weapons and is only pursuing civilian nuclear energy.

On enrichment, the report said Iran had now enriched 2,427 kilograms to just over three percent level. That means shipping out 1,200 kilograms (as proposed by the IAEA late in 2009) now would still leave Iran with more than enough material to make a nuclear weapon. That makes the deal brokered by Turkey and Brazil unattractive to the U.S and its allies.

#2  ION ISRAEL NN > HALUTZ: NASRALLAH'S FEAR INDICATES HIZBULLAH'S WEAKNESS.

ARTIC = Nasrallah's choice to perennially stay in hiding due to fear of capture or assassination, be it by Israel or Muslim foes, says more about Hizbullah's lack of effec potency agz Israel than the opposite???

* SAME > [Israeli] AIR FORCE TOLD TO EXPECT DISTANT ASSIGNMENTS [LR missions outside of Israeli airspace agz differen multiple threats].

#1  Yookay, but the DPRK = KIMMIE repor has several Nucbombs.


Again, NOT all MSM-NET Reports since the 1990's of Islamist Iran procuring an unknown number of Black Market, etc. Nukes from former SSRS have been discounted.
