Announcement ? Hey Bambi ! This is not the campaign anymore. Millions of lives hang in the balance. Time to wake from your sleepy time.

Source: Iran acknowledges second nuclear facility Posted: 05:42 AM ET

(CNN) — Iran has admitted the existence of a second uranium enrichment plant in a letter sent to the International Atomic Energy Agency, a U.S. diplomatic source told CNN.

The letter mentioned the facility, located on a military base near the holy city of Qom, the source said. It is thought capable of housing 3,000 centrifuges, not enough to produce nuclear fuel to power a reactor, but sufficient to manufacture bomb-making material, she said.

U.S. and French intelligence officials have known about the facility for several months, the source said. When Iran discovered that Western nations had knowledge of the facility, it sent the letter to the IAEA.

Just wow. This is a nightmare for Iran. For years they have been denying that there was never a link betweeen their miliary and their 'civilian nuclear power' infastructure. And now we learn that this new enrichment plant is within a military base and is just the right size to manufacture bomb-making material?
