TEHRAN, Iran - Former Iranian President Hashemi Rafsanjani said Tuesday that Iran has enriched uranium using 164 centrifuges, a major development in nuclear fuel cycle technology, news agencies reported.
Rafsanjani made the comment to the Kuwait News Agency during an interview in Tehran.
"Iran has put into operation the first unit of 164 centrifuges, has injected (uranium gas) and reached industrial production," the Kuwait News Agency quoted Rafsanjani as saying.
Iranian authorities had promised to announce "good nuclear news" on Tuesday.
Now they're gonna get RAMMED.........
If true, I suspect our intelligence services knew this already. That clock just keeps ticking louder.
As long as it's Iram and not Iran we should be OK.
Don't get too cozy with that uranium, you ain't gonna have it for long.
You have more faith in our intelligence services than I.
;-)
Couldn't he just say this to bring up the price of oil and really hurt us? Another enemy are the hedge funds who are manipulationg the price of oil wih every statement by this psycho
Iram is a little town in Iran or Iran's brother, not sure yet.
The Berkeley Intelligent RAM (IRAM) project seeks to understand the entire spectrum of issues involved in designing general-purpose computer systems that integrate a processor and DRAM onto a single chip - from circuits, VLSI design and architectures to compilers and operating systems. IRAM should offer several advantages over today's solutions, including considerably reduced latency and dramatically increased bandwidth to main memory, reduced power and energy consumption, and reduced space and weight for embedded, portable, desktop, and parallel computer systems.

Ha! I read it as "Irma". For the briefest second, I thought, "Irma?"
I suspect that they have had a bomb for some time.
I wonder if enriched uramiium is as dangerous as enriched uranium?
parsy, who likes to pile on.
"IRAN HAS ENRICHED URANIUM FOR THE FIRST TIME!"
Why am I doubtful that it's the first time?
I wonder if enriched uramium is as dangerous as enriched uranium?
parsy, who likes to pile on. (Hmmm ignore that first try)
You see, we need to wait to have independent confirmation of the mullah's statement before we take action. Admission by the accused is not enough! We must have separate proof! (SARCASM OFF)
Sad to say, but I suspect the USA will do very little except complain. Israel does not have the tools to do a complete job of it and falling short will mean a nuke sent their way from Iran much sooner than expected. Left alone, at least they will have a year or so before total destruction.
We have become a nation of sissies. Where have all the real men gone?
If false, the same.
I certainly HOPE so, else we're paying for nothing.
