A State Department official told lawmakers Thursday he was unsure of the precise location of tons of low-enriched uranium shipped out of Iran on a Russian vessel as part of the landmark nuclear agreement.

Ambassador Stephen Mull, the lead U.S. official overseeing the deal's implementation, said during testimony before the House Foreign Affairs Committee that the stockpile is a Russian custody issue. He said the U.S. is confident the material will be controlled properly.

"We obviously have had many differences for many years with Russia," Mull said. "But one of the features of our relationship is pretty close cooperation and protection of nuclear material."

Yeah Right.

WE don’t know where it is.

It’s with the WMDs that went to Syria from Iraq. ;-)

It’s stored at the nearest weapon making factory.

The low-enriched uranium is suitable mainly for generating nuclear power and needs substantial further enrichment for use in the core of a nuclear warhead.

The Russians will take care of the last part.

With Obama in power it could easily be at Oak Ridge Tn.

The State Department is also unsure of:

1. Security regulations.
2. Muslims
3. Other countries.
4. Illegal aliens
5. College majors requiring an IQ greater than 100.
6. What the meaning of common sense is.
7. The speed of light.
8. How to read an analog clock.

Among N other things.

Where N is a very large number.

Maybe it's stored on the tops of those ICBMs that they DON'T have.
