Again technically true -

....however IMHO you are missing the entire point:

Why the H-ll provide Iran with fuel rods that within a matter of months can (and likely will be) converted in plutonium based weapons

Reports indicate that the Russian built Bushehr power plant - once operating in 2010 - would generate enough plutonium for up to 12 to 16 weapons PER YEAR

Thus making all the current international fuss and hand-wringing about refining low-grade uranium totally meaningless

The Bushehr reactor already has fuel. The Russians finished delivering fuel to it in Jan 2008. The final test run in Bushehr is actually due to happen in the next few days.
