Tehran Weather Forecast
Straight from the Debka File: ?Iran has struck another blow in its nuclear offensive against the world. Tuesday, June 7, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad termed Iran?s nuclear program ?a train with no brakes or reverse gear? after Tehran announced the deployment of submarines in the Red Sea. Wednesday, Iran?s vice president and atomic chief Fereydoon Abbasi Davani said Iran?s 20-percent uranium enrichment work would be transferred from Natanz to Fordo this summer. Purification capacity would be tripled, he said, by improved centrifuges.
debkafile?s military sources report that this move further shortens Iran?s road to weapons grade uranium of 90 percent.
Last November, Abbasi Davani escaped an attempt of his life in northern Tehran, for which Iran held Israel responsible.
Fordo is a well-guarded underground facility situated near the military installations surrounding the holy city of Qom and protected by air defense missile batteries. It was burrowed deep into the side of a mountain. These features make the facility all but invulnerable to an American or Israel air strike.
The very name Fordo is a red flag for US President Barack Obama.
In Pittsburgh on Sept. 25, 2009, Obama appeared before the world media, flanked by the British prime minister of the day, George Brown, and French President Nicolas Sarkozy, to reveal the existence of the surreptitious Iranian enrichment facility at Fordo. He gave Tehran two weeks to open up the facility to full International Atomic Energy Agency inspection and disclose the plans for the site, failing which Washington, London and Paris would pursue joint action against the Islamic Republic.
The answer Iran gave was that the US president?s allegations were baseless and the nuclear watchdog inspectors were welcome.
Iran President Ahmadinejad
The UN inspectors arrived at the Fordo subterranean facility a month later and returned to Vienna to report they found nothing ? neither centrifuges for enrichment nor nuclear materials. Two more UN inspections produced the same result.
Iran?s announcement Wednesday demonstrates that in 2009, it made a fool of Western leaders, especially President Obama, and tricked the international atomic agency inspectors.Enrichment uranium to 20 percent meanwhile takes Iran another big step towards attaining the fuel for a nuclear weapon.
Three years ago, Obama accused Tehran of concealment and deceit. Today, the Iranians no longer bother to conceal the true function of the Fordo facility ? or even that 3,000 advanced centrifuges will be working there when the plant reaches full capacity.
Iran?s rulers feel they can be afford to be barefaced about their activities because they are certain that neither the US nor Israel with take military action against the Fordo plant. They do not find the condemnation of world powers or the nuclear watchdog too burdensome to live with.?"
