My newspaper tells me that Iran has agreed to let inspectors from the United Nation’s International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) into their country for inspections of its Nuclear Activities. This is a wonderful thing...Or is it?
The Nuclear Stuff that the IAEA is concerned about is...
- All sorts of secret work on Nuclear Weapons.
- Conducting high explosive testing and detonator development for the express purpose of being able to set off Nuclear Charges.
- Computer modeling of cores for Nuclear Warheads.
- Preparations for an actual Nuclear Weapons test.
- Developing a Nuclear Payload for the Shahab 3 intermediate range missile which can reach Israel.
Iran has repeatedly vowed to “wipe Israel from the face of the Earth”. I would be concerned if those crazy Alabamians were repeatedly threatening to wipe Georgia off the face of the Earth.
There are some who say the IAEA ought not to bother because Iran was very restrictive about what inspectors were actually allowed to see during past inspections.
The Smartfella? thinks it would not be worth the air fare. There is not much to be gained by inspecting the Energy Drink Section of the Convenience Store on the corner of Mohammed Street and Mohammed Street in beautiful downtown Tehran.
Would I kid u?
