VIENNA - Iran has effectively shut down a probe of a site suspected of being used for work on nuclear weapons development while doubling the number of machines it could use to make the core of nuclear warheads at an underground bunker safe from airborne attack, the U.N. nuclear agency said in a report Thursday.

Carter was worse but Obama is the second worst president in our history.
The civilized world must pray that *Israel* has the courage and the wisdom to do what needs to be done.We must do so because it’s plainly obvious that the desire and/or the courage to act is lacking in China,the USSR,Europe and the United States (under the current junta).
It is time for Israel to do something unconventional and murderous, in hopes of preventing a medium sized nuclear war.
They must arrange a nuclear accident in Iran. It must kill thousands of Iranians. And it must be blamed by the Iranian people on their government’s efforts to produce nuclear weapons.
A way to do this is to first arrange a large explosion at one of their nuclear facilities upwind of a major population center. Then park a semi-truck between that site and the city.
The truck opens panels in its roof and with quiet fans blows a mixed lot of a substantial quantity of very deadly radioactive isotopes into the air. Once it is done, the truck is driven away and disposed. After it is gone, then the explosives are set off at the nuclear site.
Tens of thousands of people in that population center develop severe radiation burns and many die. The city is quickly determined to be horribly contaminated, and because their government is ineffectual, it will first try to conceal what is happened, but it will be unable to provide any significant emergency response.
The international community will send numerous spies to the area to do radiological surveys, and quickly establish that the isotopes are unique to nuclear weapons. Then they will have to demand access.
Bureaucratic and political voices demanding more time, sanctions, and endless committee meetings will be told to shut up. The world nuclear powers will be forced to give Iran an ultimatum.
So thousands, or tens of thousands of Iranians will die, to save the lives of millions or tens of millions of Iranians and innocent other peoples. Iranians will be horrified of the consequences of nuclear weapons, and will shun them as did the Japanese.
This is ugly and evil, but it is much, much less evil than the consequences of a medium sized nuclear war.
While some Americans might be willing to tolerate such a war, they only do so because they are unaware that, because of the Jet Stream, deadly isotopes from such a war could very well rain down on the US Midwest, an effect that has been known since the 1960s, and why the US promulgated the Atmospheric Test Ban Treaty.
No way! When you see the damage Jimmy Obama has done you will understand why some good citizens think America cannot recover from his evil.
This is not a new report, nor is it any kind of breaking news. Here is the report, published in May, declassified in June and sent to the lazy media, needin’ a story, this week:
http://www.iaea.org/Publications/Documents/Board/2012/gov2012-23.pdf
The “doubled” number of centrifuges to a total of 6,177 centrifuges are mainly outer casings only with only one cascade of 174 centrifuges running. The centrifuge rotor assemblies have not been installed in the others because Iran is being blocked from buying them.
There is good news in the report, Iran is converting most of their 19.75% to fuel plates.
The bad news is, Iran has enough 3.5% if further enriched to fuel five atomic weapons.
Iran is also enriching to 19.75% far more than they need for fuel plates. They may be intending the fuel plates for export sales.
Iran’s yellow cake uranium ore is heavily contaminated with molybdenum which causes the centrifuges to plug up and unbalance, destroying the machine. However, once you get to 3.5% the moly is out.
From 3.5% to 19.75% is relatively easy and fully legal. The great worry is that Iran will stockpile at 19.75% and then “breakout” and quickly produce 90% any time they want, faster than we can respond.
BTW, the sanctions are now directly affecting about 10% of the Iranian economy.
The Parchin site is not an enrichment facility, never was. The site is so heavily watched that Iran will do nothing there of importance.
Iran knows their little horror will be stopped when Obama’s out of office... and they’re in a hurry to ‘get it done’ before Romney/Ryan take over... If Israel is destroyed, it’ll be because Democrats are evil fools.
