IAEA says Iran has tested nuclear warheads

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has said that it has found evidence about Iran testing its advanced nuclear warhead design.
The International Atomic Energy Agency has said that it has found evidence about Iran testing its advanced nuclear warhead design.

In a report titled “Possible Military Dimensions of Iran’s Nuclear Program” the IAEA says it has also presented it to Iran for its response.

The very existence of the technology, known as a two-point implosion device, is officially secret in both the US and Britain, but according to the report, Iranian scientists may have tested high-explosive components of the design, The Guardian reported.

According to the report, the technology allows for the production of smaller and simpler warheads than older models, and it also reduces the diameter of a warhead and makes it easier to put a nuclear warhead on a missile.

The agency has in the past treated such reports with skepticism, particularly after the Iraq war. But its Director General, Mohamed ElBaradei, has said that the evidence of Iranian weaponisation “appears to have been derived from multiple sources over different periods of time. It appears to be generally consistent, and is sufficiently comprehensive and detailed that it needs to be addressed by Iran.”

Nuclear experts have described the development as breathtaking, and have urged for the urgency to find a diplomatic solution to the Iranian nuclear crisis.

The revelation of the documents comes at a time of growing tension, where Tehran has so far rejected a deal that would remove most of its enriched uranium stockpile for a year and replace it with nuclear fuel rods which would be much harder to turn into weapons.

The Iranian Government has also balked at negotiations over its continued enrichment of uranium.

Iran caught testing nuclear warhead

Evidence 'gather' from corruption 'has to be answered by Iran'! While an 'Honest' revelation of israeki Nuclear Weaponry gets ignored!

Those that provided the so called evidence against Iran get 'rewarded' with bribe monies, while the Honest reveiler of israeki evidence gets Prison!

Quality of the evidences needs to be weighed!

Take the Evidence about Iraq 'yellow cakes' and the other evidence of WMD, that the US MANUFACTURED WITH CORRUPT IRAQIS LIKE CALIPARI, a convicted criminal! A fraudster on the CIA payrol and then the US sTATE dEPARTMENT’S PAYROL(US choice to run Iraq, (but Iraqis new better).

Amazing

Attn galljdaj...there is a critical flaw in your logic, unfortunately. The unmistakeable difference between Israel and Iran is that Israel has nukes for defensive purposes, while Iran has already announced, many times, to use theirs offensively, with their intention to wipe out Israel and the western world. I’m not sure what part of that don’t you understand, or perhaps you haven’t been reading the news over the past decade. If Israel had wanted to use their nukes in the same manner as Iran intends, Iran would have been made into pixie dust decades ago. It’s the same with India having them, Britain, the U.S., etc. They have them for DEFENSIVE purposes, as a deterrent to attack, not to go out and destroy those with whom they disagree on the world political stage. If any of these countries were of a mind to use them, that would have happened by now. And the lone country in the world that did use them

Let's talk about 'my flaw' you believe... .

You claim I missed the Iranian Declaration to 'wipe Isreal off the map.' Just what makes you think that? By your post, I believe you think the term wipe irael off the map means by war and terrorism, to which I say you invent a meaning not said by Iran, but claimed by opponets of Iran. Those with agendas against Iran make such a claim as to 'their' meaning for what Iran has said!

I choose to believe the Iranian Words, as explained by the Iranians subsequently to the lies of the Iran’s enemies. Removing a name off the map of the World is far different than a war of terror and destruction! The only war Iran has had in recent years was with Iraq. And, compare that to the israekis! Stealing lands waters and murdering peoples in genocidal fashions! Your claims of israeki peacefulness and intents is a very shallow joke!

I too support the wiping of israel of the map of the middle east. I support the REVOKING OF UN Resolution 181. I support forcing the Germans taking a piece sector of Germany such as the Rhineland and giving that location to the Jews, and they can call it whatever they want! Now if that is not good enough, anther choice I have promoted is to give the Jews the State of Florida, and the Jews can call it whatever they want!

And of Course the UN SHOULD THEN VOTE APPROVAL OR REJECTION, however, the revoking of UN Resolution should remain and the wiping off of Israel from the Map of the ME should still stand!

If you bothered to 'investigate' the words of Iran you would find the correct meaning of the Iranian Words, and the subsequent lies of enemies of Iran.

My words are clear as are my meanings, anything different are your lies!

Iran has been caught red handed before.

Operation green salt from 2006!
This information was acquired off an Iranian laptop!
Yet the head of the IAEA a muslim friendly with the regime of Iran said the below was a fabrication!
Now the truth is coming out he was used to further the agenda of creating nukes for Iran.

The Green Salt Project (also known as the “Project 1-11”)[1] is an alleged secretive Iranian entity focusing on uranium processing, high explosives and a missile warhead design. The Green Salt Project derives its name from uranium tetrafluoride, also known as green salt, an intermediate product in the conversion of uranium ore into uranium hexafluoride â a toxic gas that can undergo enrichment or purification into fuel for nuclear reactors or bombs.[1] Uranium tetrafluoride has also been used as the source of metallic uranium for Magnox reactor fuel elements via chemical reduction. Since the International Atomic Energy Agency began investigating Iranian nuclear activities in 2002, the IAEA has discovered a series of clandestine nuclear activities, some of which violated Iranâs safeguards agreement with the agency.[2] The Green Salt Project is allegedly among these projects.

The Green Salt Project was initially brought to light by reports of a laptop computer in the CIA’s possession which was supposedly smuggled out of Iran that contained a variety of information on Iran’s alleged nuclear weapons program, from the design of underground testing facilities to schematics of nuclear missile warheads. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) referred to the green salt project on January 31, 2006, though the contents of the laptop have not been provided by the US to the IAEA for independent analysis or confirmation. IAEA officials reportedly remain suspicious of the information.


On 5 December 2005, the IAEA Secretariat had repeated its request for a meeting to discuss information that had been made available to the Secretariat about alleged nuclear research studies, including the Green Salt Project, as well as tests related to high explosives and the design of a missile re-entry vehicle, all of which could involve nuclear material and which appear to have administrative interconnections.[3]

On 16 December 2005, Iran replied that the âissues related to baseless allegations.â Iran agreed on 23 January 2006 to a meeting with the Deputy Director-General for Safeguards for the clarification of the alleged Green Salt Project, but declined to address the other topics during that meeting. In the course of the meeting, which took place on 27 January 2006, the Agency presented for Iranâs review a number of communications related to the project. Iran reiterated that all national nuclear projects are conducted by the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), that the allegations were baseless and that it would provide further clarifications later.[3]

On 26 February 2006, the IAEA Deputy Director-General for Safeguards met with Iranian authorities to discuss the alleged Green Salt Project. Iran repeated that the allegations âare based on false and fabricated documents so they were baseless,â and that neither such a project nor such studies exist or did exist.[3]







No country using weasel wording like wipe off the map should be allowed the creation, purchasing or acquiring of a nuclear weapon.
Don’t bother with the excuse Mahmoud Ahmadinejad did not mean destroying Israel and killing it’s people they have been caught funding, training and arming using proxy murderers like Hamas and Hezbollah.
These groups and many others liek them sole purpose for existing is to destroy Israel.
No more lies Iran step up and be the great country and regional power you want everyone to think you are!
Admit you are pursuing nukes for peaceful and defensive purposes!
What is the world going to do attack you?
The US has enough on it’s plate and Israel can’t even beat Hamas and Hezbollah in Lebanon.

israel is a reality!

Israel is as old border wise as many countries in the region.
How about redrawing the borders of the countries in the region along ethnic lines and wiping out Jordan instead!
Better to give the Muslims of the world Israel and kick them out of all western countries!
The US will gladly absorb the capable and industrious Israelis in exchange for the Muslims.

It will be Israel who launches on Iran

The Israelis will create and use excuses to launch on Iran, something they’ve wanted to do for a long time. Is it any wonder the Iranis want their own nuke?

Then why haven’t the Israelis bothered to launch now prior to Iran becoming armed with nukes, Einstooge?

After reading the rants and raves of Kawahchan I surely doubt the sanity of the posters in this site. What is this fixation with Dan Quayle. He is not even a public official. You need psychiatric help and get it soon.

Safety #1

First I would say show us the evidence as I no longer believe general statements as we have been lied to time after time! Next I would say Iran needs nuclear weapons to remain safe and avoid take-over by the USA or local nuclear powers a balance is needed in the M.E. and Irans history shows it to be a good choice. For it to remain independant of foreign control it is inevitable....

Now we can turn that whole litter box that is the middle east into a glass-topped parking lot.


Get off the oil tit and use real sustainable energy sources.

Sounds good to me.

Oh, and by the way take out the jews too.

nukes? why not?

Every country should have nukes.... Logic is simple....

If you have a ``knife``, why then are you whining when i am not wanting to remain bare handed??? Why are you whining when i want the same ``knife`` that you already have for decades?

Iran is in a hard spot, pushed around by usa, israel and maybe some other countries. It has the right to defend itself. And when you say that Iran have already announced that nukes will be used for attack on israel, it is just barking, meaning don`t mess with us, we won`t attack, but we will defend ourselfs with everything we got.

Any comment is useless, because we are not cia or mossad or revolutionary guard so we can`t really change things.... we can just comment.

We have to remember if Iran launch a nuke missile Israel will launch as well and nuke war will not stop to the point lot of people will die.Iran will burn forever because of the oil underground and the eco system will change and the will world will be affected by the weather changes. Hates is not a vertue of peace and that pwerson Galljdaj has lot of hates in his heart. He must be a fanatic Muslim.

Can Iran nukes be allowed?

If India wanted to use nuke in times when Pak. terrorists attacked Indian Parliament, and 26/11 attacks in Mumbai was carried out, Pak. would have been in ashes just in seconds. It is not in the agenda of India to wipe out Pak. If Israel would intend to use nuke, they would not have send medics and scientists to Iran to help quake victims and improving Iranian quake warning system. It is not to say while Israel intends to help Iran, Iran intends to wipe out Israel. There are Persians who support the cause of the well being of the Israelis. But with the president like Ahemedinejad, intending to wipe out Israel, producing nukes is unacceptable. Even if Netanyahu would intend to wipe out just Tehran itself and not the entire Iran, still it would be unacceptable. The principle is the same both for Iran and Israel.
