"Death to America!"

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry on Monday said Iran made “significant progress†in keeping up its end of the nuclear deal with world powers, after it was reported that the Islamic Republic sent a major shipment of low-enriched uranium materials to Russia, AFP reports.
Ali Akbar Salehi, head of Iran's Atomic Energy Organization, told the local ISNA news agency, "The fuel exchange process has taken place."
The Russian foreign ministry confirmed the report, according to AFP.
SNA's report said Iran had sent 8.5 tons of low-enriched nuclear material to Russia and received "around 140 tons of natural uranium in return."
Washington described the shipment as 25,000 pounds of "low-enriched uranium materials."
This, in Kerry's words, represents "all of Iran's nuclear material enriched to 20 percent that was not already in the form of fabricated fuel plates for the Tehran Research Reactor."
Under the deal struck in July between Iran and the P5+1 group of world powers, Tehran agreed to cut its low-enriched uranium stockpile to less than 300 kilograms (660 pounds).
This would mean that it would not have enough fuel on hand to rapidly enrich enough to the levels needed to build a nuclear weapon -- lengthening its so-called "breakout time" to more than a year.
Kerry said on Monday that Iran's shipment to Russia had already tripled the amount of time it would take to produce enough fuel for a bomb from two or three months up to six or nine, according to AFP.
He said the shipment to Russia was "a significant step toward Iran meeting its commitment to have no more than 300 kilograms of low-enriched uranium by Implementation Day."

Kerry is in a state of perpetual politically correct self delusion. The man is a pompous ,narcissistic fool. Would be comical if it were not so dangerous for the American people.
Kerry’s such a special kind of idiot. That’s how I explain it to myself because the alternative, that this apparent delusional behavior is actually a shrewdly calculated masquerade, is just too much to bear.
Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. He’s not just a danger to the American people, but to American allies, too. And it’s still comical. Like a Gilbert and Sullivan production on the deck of the Titanic. The Captain who goes down with the ship because he won’t admit that it is in danger.
Pass the rum raisins.
Good for Iran, they haven’t nuked us yet.
Once a traitor always a traitor.
Just think, Kerry could have been President.
Think Gore and then Kerry, W was not that bad.
How much weapons grade did Russia include in the 140 ton shipment?
Has anyone ever witnessed John F’n Kerry elk and chew gum at the same time? Cuause I’m thinking that’s got to be a real challenge for him.
Elk = walk.
Why in the world would they even attempt to comply with something they never signed or even agreed to?
Because they know that Obama and his Marxists/Islamists don’t give a flying f**k what they do and Kerry is too stupid and vain to know anything he isn’t told is so.
this story is misleading.
(some of Iran’s)
some, maybe half, of the medium -enriched uranium,
was converted into oxide, and then into fuel elements.
It is important to point out,
that this uranium has not disappeared or get downblended,
it has merely been converted into a different molecule,
the isotope ratio does not change.
This uranium can easily be converted
back into U-metal or UF6,
which is
easy to further enrich and/or
convert for bomb-use.
He needs to be drawn and quartered
Kerry, the only man actually dumber than Burnie Sanders.
None. All low-grade. They got back a sh!@tload of natural uranium that they can enrich.
"Death to America!"
Yep, they won’t be nuking Israel. They want to survive!
He can’t; he’s a politician who like all ‘politicians’ is empowered by little people (voters mostly) & making money politicking.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
