The religion of peace doesn’t need nukes.
People, wait a second.
Uranium when it comes out of the ground is 99.3% U238. 0.7% U-235. U-235 is reactor fuel and bomb material.
BUT.
If that is the ratio out of the ground, you centrifuge it to move the U238 outwards on the curve of the centrifuge. U-235, being a tiny bit lighter, is on the inner part.
You do this for a while and you scrape out the U238. After rather a long time you get the ratio to 95% U238 and 5% U235.
That’s the % requirement for reactor fuel, and Iran is completely entitled to have reactors.
Bomb material has to be much higher. 50-80% U235. That is a long time centrifuging.
Point being, no, you don’t tell them they can’t spin Uranium to create fuel. That’s like telling them they are not allowed to grow food. A completely innocent activity.
What you want to prevent is the elevation to 10+ times more concentration of U235. Assuming you don’t think they are entitled to do whatever science they want.
Pakistan has them. And George W. Bush could have easily - EASILY - taken them away right after 9/11.
