The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), tasked with monitoring Iran’s nuclear program but receiving scant cooperation from that nuclear bomb-hungry nation, has sounded the alarm that Iran and its nuclear enrichment program are only weeks away from achieving weapons-level nuclear material.
The IAEA found that “three [virtually inaccessible] locations, and other possible related locations, were part of an undeclared structured nuclear program carried out by Iran until the early 2000s” and that “some activities used undeclared nuclear material.”
One of the three sites became known publicly in 2018 after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed it at the United Nations and called it a clandestine nuclear warehouse hidden at a rug-cleaning plant.
That might not sound like much to the lay observer, but in terms of Iran’s developing a nuclear weapon, the warning signs are ominous. Four nations, including the United States, have called upon the IAEA to declare that country in violation of its non-proliferation agreement.
The IAEA report notes that Iran has enriched 408.6 kilograms of uranium to 60 percent. It takes only 42 grams to make a nuclear weapon at 90-percent enrichment, which is within weeks of Iran’s grasp.
Meanwhile, Great Statesman Trump, who evidently aims to join Neville Chamberlain as fool-in-chief, admitted last week that he asked (i.e., ordered) Israel not to take military action against Iran’s nuclear facilities.
“They don’t want to be blown up. They would rather make a deal,” beamed a delusional Trump to the media, the ghost of Neville Chamberlain lurking behind him and Obama, in his Washington, D.C., mansion cheering him on.
I guess Trump, like Obama before him, is loading up a plane with billions of dollars in bribery funds to beg the Ayatollah to hold off on creating a nuclear weapon until after he leaves the White House.
Putin, like the Ayatollah, is playing on the Nobel Peace Prize fiddle inside Trump’s brain to buy time and complete his mission while pretending to be peace-loving. In actuality, neither country’s leader cares the least about civilian or military deaths so long as he can reach his goal — conquest of Ukraine for Russia, attainment of a nuclear arsenal — and destruction of Israel — for Iran.
