HMM, NOW I WONDER JUST WHO COULD OF SET OFF THAT EXPLOSION?
Two people died in an explosion that ripped through an explosive material production unit at a nuclear facility near Tehran, according to Iranian press reports on Monday. The incident occurred at the Parchin military compound, not far from the Iranian capital, according to the Iranian Students News Agency.
The BBC cited the pro-reform website Saham news as saying that the explosion on Sunday evening was so intense that windows of buildings 15 km (nine miles) away were shattered. The glare from the blast could also be seen from a great distance, the report said.
ISNA quoted Irans defense industries organization as saying that unfortunately, due to the incident, two workers of this production unit lost their lives. Israel in the past has alleged that Iran has used its Parchin military base as the site for secret tests of technology that could be used only for detonating a nuclear weapon.
The Jewish state has been a severe critic of six big powers negotiations with Iran on restraining its nuclear program, suspecting Tehran is only trying to buy time to master sensitive nuclear know-how and would evade the terms of any final deal.
The Islamic Republic says allegations that it is seeking a nuclear weapons capability are false and baseless. Tehran says it is Israels assumed atomic arsenal that is a destabilizing threat to the Middle East.

Yeah though I see you excluded that one note idiot Chevy Chase! Big improvement when he took his ego away.
...”I believe our government thinks we are stupid”....
The only time Gov. has concern about what any think is at elections.
Iran’s denied it happened last I read.
...”Im guessing the totally leveled buildings on the left side of the picture was the target .. right ..??”...
I have no idea really. But whoever did the job knows exactly what they hit! LOL.....
Probably not in so many words. Our allies, or former allies, have been betrayed, outed, cheated, lied to, and embarrassed so many times by this administration that they often don't confide plans of this type. If Bibi had warned Obama this was going to happen, it would be on the front page of the New York Times and the brave IDF agents who were arranging the explosion would have been arrested and killed by Iran.
Baghdad Bob has some relatives.
All ME nations sing the tune of denial...it’s a “humiliation” to their sensitivities...which as we know are many when it comes to themselves. Yet their absolute brutality and horrendous treatment of their bodies and others doesn’t seem to register on their scales of sensitivity, rather it’s fully accepted and often celebrated.
Are you saying enriching to weapon’s grade isn’t required to generate electricity? How can that be?

Don’t ask me .. I’m no nuclear scientist .. I was just repeating what Netanyahu said. And .. since he said that, there has not been even one comment regarding his statement being wrong.
And .. if you’re not making a WEAPON, why would you need “weapon’s grade” anything.
You’re right on this - no one needs ‘weapon grade’ if they’re not making a weapon.
Time to watch “Munich” again.
Allowing a minimum of .15 psi overpressure to break glass, at 9 miles 50kt would be close. If the photo shows actual explosion results, then the buildings adjacent are well designed, and survived in excess of 15psi OP. Or, a much smaller explosion, and the glass breakage is due to other action.
And you don't need an "explosive material production unit".
