The report, couched in vague diplomatic parlance, will state that Iran continues to ignore Security Council resolutions, is not allowing IAEA monitors to do their job properly, as it had pledged to, and continues to enrich uranium. The uranium enrichment facility at Natanz already has 1.600 centrifuges, 1.300 of which are operating well, at least according to the Iranians. This fact shows that Iran's nuclear experts have mastered the technology. According to various calculations, these centrifuges will be able to enrich a "significant amount" of uranium - about 25 kilograms, enough to create an atom bomb - if they operate continually for nine months...

MYTH: El Baradei cares and want to proect the world

answer: Deathwish by the free world.

Why do El Baradei’s people STILL run the classified
energy group of the US Patent Office?
answer: eager deathwish by America.

How dense can the UN and the IAEA be?

No matter how painful, sanctions against these maniacs mean nothing. Did not Kim and Hussein teach these boneheads anything?

There will be mass blood-shed coming with Iran. The only questions are “when” and “who fires the first shot”?
