North Koreans among 40 dead at Iran nuke plant
WND ^ | February 3, 2013 | Reza Kahlili

Meanwhile, Tehran's official news agency calls WND 'mouthpiece of CIA'

The explosions at Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility Jan. 21 killed at least 40 people, including two North Koreans, WND learned Sunday.

Meanwhile, the Islamic regime is labeling WND a “mouthpiece of the CIA” for its exclusive reporting of the blasts.

The bodies of 11 of the technicians and scientists are beyond recognition, a member of the security forces at the facility told WND. According to the source, 60 others are in critical condition and have been transferred to the central base of the 27th Division of Mohammad Rassool Allah. The base, between Tehran and Qom, is equipped with a modern medical facility.

At the time of the explosions, the source said, 203 Iranian scientists and technicians along with 16 North Koreans had been logged in at the site, though the initial report listed 240 people.

The day before the explosions, the North Koreans had brought in new equipment, described by the source as touch-screen monitors the size of TVs that were installed in the monitoring room and some new parts that were installed in the centrifuges before the start of the enrichment process.

Get the inside story in Reza Kahlili’s “A Time To Betray” and learn how the Islamic regime “bought the bomb” in “Atomic Iran.”

The explosions were reported exclusively by WND Jan. 24, with updates Jan. 27, Jan. 29, Jan. 30 and Jan. 31. WND previously reported the trapped workers included 16 North Koreans: 14 technicians and two military attaches.

The source said many of the centrifuges have been destroyed and rescuers have still not accessed the reserves of the stock of 20-percent enriched uranium to assess the level of radiation.

Thanks EBH.
According to the London Times, the arch Conservatives at World Net Daily finally got one right.
No way, our very own fake experts said the whole thing was 'shopped. Oh, and the fact that they agreed with the White House makes it even less likely to be true.

Friend, unless you were being sarcastic, methinks you best be more careful who you call "fake".

Just because you want to smell blood in the water, and the answer doesn't suit you, doesn't at all mean the answer is wrong.

That one BI photo (the only purported visual "evidence" published so far) IS bogus.

I strongly suggest you contact me via FReepMail...

Some confirmation

An explosion is believed to have damaged Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility, which is being used to enrich uranium, Israeli intelligence officials have told The Times. Sources in Tel Aviv said yesterday that they thought the explosion happened last week. The Israeli Government is investigating reports that it led to extensive structural damage and 200 workers had been trapped inside.

Good news is the centrifuges being destroyed will set back the Iranian nuclear timetable.

The bad news is that Obama, just as when he turned a drone over to Iran, is now more likely to conveniently deliver an SSN to Iran to help pay off the national debt.

Another intriguing thing is that after this all kinds of visits commenced by US officials to Israel for several weeks. The explanation provided was that we were showing the Israelis a bunch of photos and film of a test of an upgraded MOP weapon on an unspecified ‘target’ ...after stating in the article the weapon had never been dropped from a plane, as if to reinforce the impression it could not possibly have been used in an actual attack. It took several visits over many weeks for us to brief Israel on a test?
