United Nations inspectors have found sophisticated uranium-enrichment machinery at an air force base outside Iran's capital, Tehran, U.S. and foreign sources with knowledge of the discovery say.
The find at Doshen-Tappen air base appears to undermine Iran's claim it is not pursuing a nuclear bomb. The discovery may strengthen calls for action by the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog.

Will the IAEA/UN actually do anything about it? Of course not!
To: HAL9000
It's too late to do anything but employ military force to stop the progress on getting nukes that is so far ahead, by this terrorist state.

Hal,
How long after we get UBL do you think it will be before Israel's F-16's are in the air and take out all of Iran's Facilities?
Just my pet theory, but how long are they going to put out with it?
To: taildragger
Israel realizes that they don't have to do anything now, after 9/11 I mean.
The USAF will take these reactors out.
To: Mo1
After we told them where to look.....:-)

According to Kay, it doesn't qualify as a 'stockpile' so it's not there.

Russia trained 600 Iran nuclear specialists- agency
Russia has already trained 600 specialists for a nuclear power station it is building in Iran despite U.S. concerns that Tehran wants to use it to develop nuclear weapons, Itar-Tass news agency said on Wednesday.
Russia insists the $800 million Bushehr project is purely for peaceful purposes and will press on with the construction. Tass said the specialists had been undergoing training in a Novovoronezh centre, some 400 km (250 miles) south of Moscow. Russia plans to train up just over 700 workers for the plant by next year.
Earlier this month, Moscow said that it would sign a deal with Iran in March to ship nuclear fuel for the plant, defying U.S. pressure on Moscow to sever nuclear ties with the Islamic Republic.

Kay is a bumbling amateur, stumbling in the footsteps of a disarmament genius like Hans Blix.
Heh-heh.

Islam equates to lying bags of scum and servants of evil, so who is suprised?
Desperate men do desperate things...
To: George W. Bush
Kay and Blix both trying to distract from the fact that they were miserable failures in their mission to discover what everyone knew was right there for them to see.
With all their travelling to and fro they never did discover all those mass graves either.
In their view, then, the graves did not exist because they didn't see them.

What is finding something that was already admitted called? Also, as far as US intel forecasts go...I say totally unreliable. Consistently not on mark.
