Head of the International Atomic Energy Agency says Iran is hiding enriched uranium
INN ^ | Mar 10, 2026 | Nisan Tsur

'Up to 60 percent of enriched uranium is still stored in tunnels in Isfahan, allowing Iran to produce a nuclear bomb in a short period of time,' says Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency.

We talked about that the other day. We’re aware...but I think you can’t blow it up...you have to remove it..Don’t have any idea what needs to be done.

The 60% U-235 uranium would have to be run through a gas centrifuge cycle at least once.

In gas form, it could be blown up.

But it probably would go through in batches.

The fluorine for the UF6 might get blown up.

There would be chemical processing involved for further enrichment.

I believe the fluorine has to be purified to one isotope.

Assuming Iran has enough adequately enriched uranium for a Hiroshima type bomb, given the current state of its missile and air forces how could they deliver such a weapon? Theoretically the weapon components could be smuggled out of Iran, reassembled and delivered to the intended target by truck, but that too is unlikely. However, it is in US interests to gain control over whatever enriched uranium the mullahs have made and keep it out of the hands of others who would do us harm.

This needs to be settled once and for all. Israel needs to put “boots on the ground” and confirm.

Trump is contemplating sending in special forces to secure the uranium for removal.

Spin it any way you like. However if there is no regime change in Iran and that enriched uranium is not secured, this war will have been a huge failure. The demonic, lunatic Democrats will ride the backlash to power in 2026 and 2028. It is the American nation and the American people who will suffer.

Sure you can blow it up. It might make that part of the world a little warm for a few centuries, but so be it.
