After only a week on the job the new head of the IAEA has announced he cannot find any evidence that Iran is working on nuclear capability. What a loss of credibility. That's not much good. He doesn't even have 'gut feeling' like the last head that the Iranians might want to develop a nuclear defense against threats. Geez, he needs to get some solid opinion on this, like from Jerusalem or Washington the capitals most endangered by the Mad Mullahs not-yet-existent nukuler arsenal. Maybe there are other equally strong opinions. Anybody else threaten to bomb Iran? |

His is ALSO the conclusion of the December 2007 National Intelligence NIE. According to our intelligence angencies, Iran gave up the weapons part of their program in 2003. Dave |

"I don't see any evidence in IAEA official documents about this," Yukiya Amano told Reuters in his first direct comment on Iran's atomic program since his election, when asked whether he believed Tehran was seeking nuclear weapons capability. What the heck, he's reading El Baradei files in Vienna, I'm not sure a conclusion can be reached by someone that was not permitted to inspect the plant, reactor or the SEVEN THOUSAND aluminum tubes. Duh |

Duh is right, it was El Baradei, NOT the CIA who blew the whistle on Irans uranium enrichment program. Dave |

Show me the letters CIA in my proposition.
Our intelligence apparatus was nuetered in the 90's, Iraq and Iran could have had any number of devices without our knowledge. Something else the commissioners logged in their report. El Baradie found small amounts of Plutonium in machinery Iran had acquired from Pakistan. Asking permission to inspect other plants but was denied, since having repeatily said that Iran has no intention of nuclear weapons capacity. My point is that 7,000 plus aluminum tubes would be worthless except for processing uranium to weapons grade. No other explanation. |

And your point is silly. If they want a power plant, then they HAVE to enrich uranium. What do you mean, "No other explanation?" It's ALSO the explanation of the 2007 NIE issued by our joint intelligence agencies. You think that they barrow a still from Kentucky to make non-weapons grade uraninium? Dave |

Oh, yes. The most obvious proof. "I do not see it (Because i am not allowed there), therefore it does not exist". According to that logic, Israel does not have any nukes at all. IAEA is not allowed to Dimona, and no one actually knows what we have. Whatever Vaanunu told the world was fabricated. |

I might be silly Dave, my limited knowledge knows you don't need to enriched uranium to U-235 to run a power plant all that much, and you can damn near use a crude separation as you described. If this is your arguement its pretty dense. Read up on properties of natural uranium which the whole earth is made up. To enriched weapons grade takes several steps and processing. Nuclear ships are powered by enriched uranium. A power plant that you seem to think Iran is satisfied is enriched to 4% U-235, weapons to blow you to hell to 85%. Anybody and everybody would give Iran the ample fuel for energy since wasted materials can be processed. And Iran would'nt have to bury their plant in the damn ground sseveral hundred feet. Now, who in the hell is silly. |

Why you insist on firmly placing your foot in your mouth, and then trying to talk through it is beyond me. Right, yeah, sure Ray, all you do is collect some Uranium, run it though a meat grinder, and you're all done. http://www.america.gov/st/wash...d.state.gov0.8355219. "http://www.usec.com/americancentrifuge.htm" Would you believe that to make fuel for a Nuclear Plant you NEED centifuges, and NOT panning for enriched fuel? Now if ONLY you could convince the US government of your new miracle technique of making fuel, all would be well. Dave |

Here brains. Explain this to the forum.
"In the gas centrifuge uranium-enrichment process, gaseous UF6 is fed into a cylindrical rotor that spins at high speed inside an evacuated casing. Because the rotor spins so rapidly, centrifugal force results in the gas occupying only a thin layer next to the rotor wall, with the gas moving at approximately the speed of the wall. Centrifugal force also causes the heavier 238 UF6 molecules to tend to move closer to the wall than the lighter 235 UF6 molecules, thus partially separating the uranium isotopes. This separation is increased by a relatively slow axial countercurrent flow of gas within the centrifuge that concentrates enriched gas at one end and depleted gas at the other. This flow can be driven mechanically by scoops and baffles or thermally by heating one of the end caps". "http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/intro/u-centrifuge.htm |
