DAVOS, Switzerland (AP) -- Iran plans to start installing thousands of centrifuges in an underground facility next month, U.N. officials said Friday, paving the way to large-scale uranium enrichment, a potential way of making nuclear weapons.

The officials, who demanded anonymity because the information was confidential, emphasized that Iranian officials had not officially said the country would embark on the assembly of what will initially be 3,000 centrifuges at Natanz. But they said senior officials have informally told the International Atomic Energy Agency the work would start next month.

Wait...let me guess the punchline here.

"The U.N. submits a resolution demanding that the United States dismantle all nuclear weapons facilities as a sign of good faith to Iran."
