Oy… It goes from Bad to Worse….:
Iran has now built up a stockpile of enough enriched uranium for one nuclear bomb, United Nations officials acknowledged on Thursday.
In a development that comes as the Obama administration is drawing up its policy on negotiations with Tehran over its nuclear programme, UN officials said Iran had produced more nuclear material than previously thought.
They said Iran had now accumulated more than one tonne of low enriched uranium hexafluoride at a facility in Natanz. If such a quantity were further enriched it could produce more than 20kg of fissile material – enough for a bomb.
“It appears that Iran has walked right up to the threshold of having enough low enriched uranium to provide enough raw material for a single bomb,” said Peter Zimmerman, a former chief scientist of the US Arms Control and Disarmament Agency
The new figures come in a report by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the UN’s nuclear watchdog, released on Thursday.
This revealed that Iran’s production of low enriched uranium had previously been underestimated.

I just wonder, will Barry still want to kiss up to these idiots? 🙄

Updated headline. I hate it when I do stupid stuff like that! D’oh!
Sure, read this story with little or no proof that the Iranians intend to use that Uranium for anything other than a nuclear power plant. But the intention is to enrage you that you won’t mind of the Israeli controlled Congress and Senate back up Israli agression. Never mind that israel had over 400 nuclear weapons, never signed on to the non-proliferation acts, and are famous for false flag attacks like the one they pulled on the USS Liberty. Get mad at Iran and forget who the bankers are behind all wars.
Sounds like you are a bit of an Anti-Semite. I could be wrong though. I can see where you are coming from. I don’t buy into the majority of the Conspiracy Theories, because the good majority of them require one to be quite stupid to believe them. However, I will concede that there are some major players controlling the purse strings in D.C.
Anyway, thanks for commenting….
