Iran’s parliament demands construction of heavy water reactor
2020-11-26
[IsraelTimes] In defiance of international sanctions on nuclear program and amid European criticism, bill also calls for operating metal uranium production plant.
“Yossi, add those two addresses to the bomber targetting lists Avram sent over.”
Iran’s parliament on Tuesday passed a bill requiring the country’s atomic agency to build a new heavy water reactor and operate a metal uranium production plant as part of efforts to challenge international sanctions on its nuclear program, state media reported.

The parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission front man, Abolfazl Amouei, was quoted by various Iranian news outlets as saying the bill was officially called "Strategic Action to Lift Sanctions."

He said the law requires the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
to redesign and optimize a new 40-megawatt heavy water reactor in Arak within four months.
This might be possible if Allah himself chooses to intercede... unless there is one already built and awaiting the grand reveal.
Since US President Donald Trump
...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US...
pulled out of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal with world powers and began imposing crushing economic sanctions on Tehran, the Islamic Theocratic Republic has retaliated by producing more and more highly enriched fissile material in violation of the agreement, getting closer and closer to a bomb, while still leaving room for a return to negotiations.

The UN’s atomic watchdog agency said earlier this month that Iran continues to increase its stockpile of low-enriched uranium far beyond the limits set in the accord and to enrich it to a greater purity than permitted.

German Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Andrea Sasse said this week that Iran was systematically violating the accord, ahead of a meeting between the German, French and British foreign ministers on the matters.

has said he hopes to return the US to the accord, under which Iran agreed to limit its nuclear activities in exchange for the lifting of international sanctions.

Biden has argued that Trump’s withdrawal from the deal signaled to American allies that the US could not be trusted to stick to agreements and that while the accord may not have been perfect, it had been effective at blocking Iran’s path to a nuclear weapon.

Taking a step back from the brink, Iran’s foreign minister said last week that Tehran was willing to return to the deal if Biden lifts sanctions on Iran after entering the White House.
”First lift the sanctions. Then we can start discussions about the shape of the table and the make-up of the diplomatic teams before beginning on negotiating reentry in earnest.”

#3  Ask Jimbo -- he's the Big Guy's go-to construction expert for billion-dollar government sweetheart deals -- like HillStone's $1.5b war profiteering deal in Iraq:

"In 2010, the vice president’s younger brother joined HillStone, a New Jersey-based company that subsequently won nearly $1.5 billion worth of business from a South Korean real estate developer that needed 'project management and construction management services in connection with a major housing development in Iraq,' according to a company press release at the time."
