The Chinese spill the beans on Iran...
I wonder what they are telling the IAEA...
China has betrayed one its closest allies by providing the United Nations with intelligence on Iran's efforts to acquire nuclear technology, diplomats have revealed.
Concern over Tehran's secretive research programme has increased in recent weeks after officials at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the UN's nuclear watchdog, discovered that Iran had obtained information on how to manufacture nuclear-armed weapons.
Beijing is believed to have decided to assist the inspectors after documents seized from Iranian officials included blueprints for "shaping" uranium metal into warheads, the testing of high explosives used to detonate radioactive material and the procurement of dual-use technology.

Interesting tidbit, Fred. Perhaps the Chinese are looking to deflect criticism for their activities in Tibet. Whatever the reason, it's good to see them do the responsible thing in this situation.
With the Chinese Govt., there is always an ulterior motive in every action they undertake.There is a reason they did this too, what it is, and how it benefits the Chicoms remains to be seen..
