Iran tested detonation.....
The UN confirms it's nuclear program has a military purpose...
A new report commissioned by the International Atomic Energy Agency says that Iran's nuclear energy program may contain "military dimensions."
In other words, the report states that Iran may be working towards acquiring a nuclear weapons capability. The report was issued just prior to the annual meeting of IAEA member states which is scheduled to convene next month in Vienna.
The report alleges that Iran is refusing the agency's repeated requests for explanations and documentation over its past nuclear activities. Tehran's non-compliance has raised suspicions that it is aiming to attain nuclear weapons.
It has become evident that Iran has confirmed, albeit implicitly, that it carried out experiments in order to test the process known as "detonation," a key stage in the development of nuclear weapons.
In addition, it refused to comment on other activities related to its nuclear program, including "weaponization," one of the final phases in manufacturing nuclear weapons in which fissionable material is installed into the bomb.
The report also states that Iran continues to install centrifuges used for enriching uranium in the nuclear facility in Natanz. The IAEA estimates that Iran has over 9,000 centrifuges.

Gee what a surprise, and it only took the Useless Nations how long to identify what the world has known for years???

I wonder how this will work out? More polite requests to show the West their military installations? Then ... more polite requests? Followed by even MORE polite requests?
Then come the polite mention that golly, we just might have to resort to sanctions and nobody wants that, so, here we go again, MORE polite requests.
Better get used to the idea of a nuclear Iran. At least the IAEA will get another member nation out of this (could that be their motive all along?).
