Iran Takes Step Nearer to a Nuclear Bomb - David Blair
Iran moved significantly closer towards acquiring the essential material for a nuclear bomb Friday when the regime claimed to have stockpiled 100 kg of enriched uranium. So far, this uranium has only been enriched to the level needed to run civilian nuclear power stations. But if Iran chooses to enrich it to 84% purity, the uranium would reach weapons-grade level. Iran would need 50 kg of weapons-grade uranium to make one atomic weapon of the kind that destroyed Hiroshima in 1945.
Uranium is enriched using centrifuges. These have been installed in Iran's nuclear plant at Natanz. A snap inspection by the International Atomic Energy Agency last month found that 1,312 centrifuges were operating. But Mustapha Pourmohammedi, Iran's interior minister, told the official news agency that 3,000 were in action. In theory, these centrifuges could produce enough weapons-grade uranium for one bomb in about a year. (Telegraph-UK)
Shouldn't we like, sound the alarms? Do we really want Ahmanutjob to have a hand on the trigger of a nuclear weapon?
I'm a believer in being pro-active. I don't like to have things just happen to me. I like to be in control. I don't trust the Mullahs & co.
I hope things are going on behind the scenes to fight this.
