"However, the diplomats said the mere presence of enriched uranium in the samples was not solid proof Iran had done the enrichment itself. Contamination was another possibility, though how it had arisen would have to be explained to the IAEA."

Egads, if the enriched uranium is a contaminent, then it came from an enriched uranium source. Iran cannot make OR possess it. According to the UN, if Iran enriches the uranium to build a bomb, that's bad. But if they imported it, that's ok.

Thanks for posting this! Wonder what the spin at the UN is going to be?

Apparently El Baradei is either denying this story, or refusing to confirm or deny, depending upon which lamestream story you happen to come across. Guess ElB needs to glow in the dark first.
