Secret Documents Reveal Iran’s Smoking Gun’ for Nuclear Bomb

(IsraelNN.com) Secret documents obtained and translated by the Times of London reveal that Iran has been working for two years on a plan to test a nuclear bomb component that triggers an explosion.

American intelligence experts previously had denied Israeli reports on Iran’s nearing nuclear capability. They claimed that Tehran in 2003 had halted preparations to make nuclear weapons and would not resume work on the project before mid-2007. The United States earlier this year admitted its information was incorrect.


Mark Fitzpatrick, senior fellow for non-proliferation at the International Institute for Strategic Studies in London, told the Times, "The most shattering conclusion is that... this was an effort that began in 2007…. If Iran is working on weapons, it means there is no diplomatic solution.

“Is this the smoking gun? That’s the question people should be asking. It looks like the smoking gun. This is smoking uranium.”

The technical document describes the use of a neutron that independent experts say have no use other than for a nuclear weapon, according to the Times.

The documents have been transferred to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the nuclear watchdog arm of the United Nations.

The revelation is one of a series of reports the past two years that indicate Iran’s progress in manufacturing a nuclear weapon. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad repeatedly has said that Israel is a "cancer” that should be “wiped off the face of the map.”

The U.S. Congress is pressing for tougher sanctions on Iran in a bid to cripple its economy as a way to force it to allow United Nations officials to inspect its nuclear facilities. U.S. President Barack Obama has pursued a strategy of diplomatic pressure.

sadly by the time the Obama administration and liberals admit Iran has been hell-bent on getting a nuke, it won't be a smoing gun but instead it will be a smoldering hole in the ground, and a large mushroom cloud.
