An Inside Look At Iran's Nuclear Program

NotBornYesterday writes "On April 8, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad visited his country's secretive nuclear enrichment plant at Natanz for a photo op. What came out of this visit is a series of photos which have caused a fair amount of interest among western scientists. Shown in the photos are not only some of the inner workings of the plant and current generation of enrichment centrifuges, but also key components to newer generations of more effective centrifuges. Analysts are 'intrigued' not only by the technical revelations in the pictures, but also because Iran's Defense Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar accompanied Ahmadinejad through the facility."

    My kingdom for some mod points! I'm so glad that someone knowledgeable finally spoke out and dispelled this myth about how Muslims are all sand-bathing, car-bombing people who eat babies as they twirl their mustaches and cackle at their insidious plans! Corruption, greed, religious zealotry as propaganda, massive hypocrisy, warmongering leaders, secret clubs of the ruling elite? Why, they're more westernised that we are! Bravo!

    What happened to your constitution?

    My constitution protects me from disease and infestation. But when I'm older I guess I'll be getting a bit more worried about that.

    OMG. I had no idea that Israeli chicks were so hot. It would almost be a privilege to be killed by one. Now I know why we are on their side. We can't we recruit hot girls like that into our military? There should be some sort of international law against bombing or attacking countries with a high per capita hot girl ratio. Do the arab countries know about this? Too bad about the language though. It's one of the few languages that sounds worse than German to my ear. Of course Arabic is even worse. Clearing your throat should never be used as a phoneme in any language.
