It was three years ago that American intelligence agents began picking up signs that someone was tunnelling into the side of a mountain in the desert outside the city of Qom...
Intelligence agents were on the lookout for a secret enrichment plant, reasoning that if UN inspectors were monitoring the known facility at Natanz, Tehran would look elsewhere to carry out its work.
Yesterdays revelations about Irans secret uranium enrichment facility at Qom came after three years of intensive investigation and surveillance by the most trusted of Americas intelligence allies: Britain, France and Israel...
The Western allies kept quiet as the evidence mounted, determined not to disclose that they knew of the Qom plant until their case was watertight. The fiasco over intelligence leading to the Iraq invasion contributed greatly to their decision.
Last week, as Tehran finally woke up to the knowledge that the plants security had been breached, it rushed to declare its existence to the IAEA, hoping to pre-empt other reports and prove its openness and co-operation.
Russia was briefed on the disclosures in bilateral talks with Mr Obama at the UN General Assembly in New York... China, however, was not trusted with the information until late Thursday...
Diplomats from the three countries briefed the IAEA in Vienna yesterday morning on their findings...The IAEA officials were not the only ones who appeared blindsided by the public revelation.

It is time to end this charade this religion has presented to us through their very own neglect in policing their own ranks. For centuries the Christian world and the muslim world have been at war. It is time the two bullies ended their fight and we should be the ones to end it. Play an end game where you risk it all for a very attainable goal. I don't want to hear about the Russian or the Chinese either since neither has any love for the muslim religion they would both just sit back and watch and enjoy it too. It's time to end this sh(t with this bullsh*t religion for all time. We win or we die in the process. To the end.
Time for the Israeli jets to scramble. There will not be another Masada!
A week ago BO said Iran was not a threat.
