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."

    When a country is run by a fanaitcal theocracy they do not care if they will be incinerated in turn. They are just doing Allah's will.

    I think the US substantially values the lives of foreigners and human life in general.
    Good point. Why kill random foreigners them when their lives are indeed substantially valuable as cheap/free labor? It is only necessary to kill a few specific uncooperative humans as examples, the rest are better off kept alive and working... at least until further notice.

    How about the nukes in Japan, agent orange in Vietnam, incendiary bombs in Iraq, etc. The US has killed (and is still killing!) people all over the world. That hardly qualifies it for the title of "substantially values the lives of foreigners and human life in general".
