IAEA chief: No evidence Iran is building a nuclear weapon

[jmotivator]

Uranium enriched to 60 per cent cannot be used to make a useful nuclear explosive device

The 60% enrichment was the level to which the Iranian regime would admit to, and has no practical use other than as a step towards weapons grade Uranium.

60% is essentially the last stage before 90%, and since Iran was allowed to block access to suspected stockpile and enrichment sites even while under JCPOA, there is no actual way to know if they have started their 90% sprint.

It's estimated that Iran, given it's expansive enrichment facilities and stockpile of 60% enriched Uranium, is a few weeks away from a sufficient amount of 90% enriched Uranium to make a bomb from whenever they start the final enrichment sprint.

Why is Iran producing 60 per cent-enriched uranium?​

On 13 April, Iran announced its intention to enrich uranium to 60 per cent U-235. This was characterized by Iran as a response to a sabotage of its vast underground enrichment cascades at Natanz two days before...

If Iran intended to surreptitiously increased Uranium to 60 % with an evil intent they would have NOT publicly announce it

Do i need to post articles from that long ago saying Iran is on the verge.

Same story same crap.

Iran's revitalized covert nuclear weapon program was only first discovered in the early 2000s

The IAEA assured everyone that they put an end to the AMAD Project in the early 2000s until leaked documents in 2018 proved that Iran has been progressing towards nuclear weapons all this time.

 

[Jagged]

Democrats conveniently ignore that the JCPOA was an entirely unworkable, toothless agreement that Iran never had any intention of honoring.

Under JCPOA Iran would declare the the sites that inspectors could access and deny access to sites that weren't on Iran's list. It rendered the agreement utterly meaningless.

So, let's assume your provided reports are true, and that Iran only started 60% enrichment in April of this year after their declaration... here we are in June, 2 months later and the IAEA states that Iran now has 400 kg of 60% enriched Uranium. 400 kg in 2 months. Further refinement would yield ~250 kg of 90% Enriched uranium, or enough for about 10 nuclear warheads.

They wouldn't need to enrich the entire 400 kg in order to have enough for a nuclear warhead though, they'd get their after the first 25 kg were refined.

Personally I don't think they went from 0 kg of 60% to 400 kg in 2 months, and suspect that they have been enriching 60% U235 for a while. But even then, assuming they have no 90% enriched yet, going from 0 kg to 25 kg would not take long. If we assume your stories are true, they have sufficient centrifuge output to go from 0k of 90% to 25 kg in a week.

Which, of course, in light of recent findings, was false. You don't build sprawling enrichment facilities in bomb proof bunkers built by your military ,sufficient to push 60-90% uranium enrichment... and then do it... with no intent to build a bomb.

IAEA chief: No evidence Iran is building a nuclear weapon
As Israel bombs Iranian nuclear sites under International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspection, questions mount over nuclear double standards and the credibility of the global system.

Iran accuses the IAEA of bias and complicity, while Israel – an undeclared nuclear power – remains outside treaty obligations.

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi responds to allegations, addresses fears of a nuclear arms race and warns of the consequences if diplomacy fails. Is the non-proliferation regime collapsing?

Rafael Grossi, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency, talks to Al Jazeera

IAEA chief: No evidence Iran is building a nuclear weapon

IAEA says no proof of Iranian nuclear weapons plan, despite Israeli attacks and accusations of IAEA bias from Tehran.

www.aljazeera.com

“If there was some activity which was clandestine or hidden or away from our inspectors, we couldn’t know,” said Grossi. What the agency has reported, he said, is that “we did not have — as in coincidence with some of the sources you mentioned there — that we did not have any proof of a systematic effort to move into a nuclear weapon.”

Since Traitor Trump’s arbitrary withdrawal from the JCPOA in ‘18 IAEA’s ability to conduct inspections in Iran has been severely curtailed, only allowing inspectors access to sites chosen by the government of Iran.

IAEA an 'instrument for Israel,' secret documents seized by Iran reveal​

The thousands of sensitive documents on Israel’s nuclear program, which Tehran said its intelligence managed to obtain, reveal direct cooperation between Tel Aviv and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) against Iran, according to an Iranian media report.

“These documents clearly show that instead of playing a neutral role, the IAEA has become an instrument serving the objectives of the Zionist regime,” Fars news agency cited an informed source as saying on 10 June.

The documents prove that “Iran’s official and confidential letters to the IAEA – containing sensitive information – were channeled to the espionage agencies of the Zionist regime through covert conduits,” the report added

Democrats conveniently ignore that the JCPOA was an entirely unworkable, toothless agreement that Iran never had any intention of honoring.

The IAEA confirmed Iran was in compliance with the treaty while it was still in effect.

Under JCPOA Iran would declare the the sites that inspectors could access and deny access to sites that weren't on Iran's list. It rendered the agreement utterly meaningless.

Under the JCPOA every site the Iranians were capable of using to enrich Uranium was subject to inspection.

The US tried to expand that to non-enrichment sites to further its onw intelligence gathering, but Iran denied it.

 

[jmotivator]

The IAEA confirmed Iran was in compliance with the treaty while it was still in effect.

Yes, Iran was in compliance with an agreement whose compliance parameters were left pretty much entirely up to Iran. They got to pick the sites that IAEA could monitor and which ones they couldn't.

Even then, as I've already shown, Iran didn't even abide by the parameters that Iran set.

 

[Jredbaron96]

Yes, Iran was in compliance with an agreement whose compliance parameters were left pretty much entirely up to Iran. They got to pick the sites that IAEA could monitor and which ones they couldn't.

The IAEA had access to every site related to the Iranian nuclear production, including mines, mills, reactors, and centrifuge production and storage.

What do you think the IAEA didnt have access to?

 

[jmotivator]

The IAEA had access to every site related to the Iranian nuclear production, including mines, mills, reactors, and centrifuge production and storage.

Wrong. IAEA had access to every nuclear production site that Iran declared. The IAEA did not have access to sites that IAEA suspected were also part of the enrichment program.

What do you think the IAEA didnt have access to?

Sites that Iran didn't declare to be part of the enrichment program.

 

[Jredbaron96]

Wrong. IAEA had access to every nuclear production site that Iran declared. The IAEA did not have access to sites that IAEA suspected were also part of the enrichment program.

The IAEA explicitly could access sites they suspected of harboring components of the nuclear enrichment process. We know because they did.

Sites that Iran didn't declare to be part of the enrichment program.

Like what?

This critique relies on the argument there existed enrichment facilities that were somehow undetectable, a technology no one else currently has. Where do you think Iran got the technology to enrich uranium in a manner that doesn't produce neutrons, radiation, or excess heat?

I wonder how long it took them to cook those "sensitive documents" up.

 

[jmotivator]

The IAEA explicitly could access sites they suspected of harboring components of the nuclear enrichment process. We know because they did.

No, they couldn't. Iran would regularly block their entrance with no resource by the inspectors. They had to just wait until Iran said it was OK to enter.

This critique relies on the argument there existed enrichment facilities that were somehow undetectable, a technology no one else currently has. Where do you think Iran got the technology to enrich uranium in a manner that doesn't produce neutrons, radiation, or excess heat?

No, it doesn't. As I already stated, Iran had secret enrichment facilities that the IAEA had no idea existed until Israeli espionage uncovered them in 2018. And there was no high tech satellite overwatch that caught it either, it was the discovery and theft of paper documents.

This should not be taken to mean that as of 2018 all secret enrichment facilities had been discovered, either, just more proof that Iran was not, and has never been, in meaningful compliance with JCPOA.

What? What secret enrichment facility was discovered?

Turquazabad, Varmin and Lavisan-Shian were sites that were not declared and uncovered by the intelligence breach.

The IAEA has since gained access to those sites and confirmed that the sites had been used, during JCPOA, to store or enrich undeclared Uranium.
